Quintain Living – the award-winning management company overseeing the rental of more than 3,250 apartments in Wembley Park – has launched 381 new homes at its latest building, Madison.
The mid-century modern inspired apartments deliver a stylish, uncluttered vibe that feels sophisticated and simple. They bring to mind the elegance of 1950s/60s New York – the era so delightfully captured by hit TV show Mad Men, which was influential in the design of the apartments’ interiors.
Furnished by John Lewis & Partners, Madison’s apartments have a timeless, classic feel, with plenty of natural materials. Cool, calming tones of rich cream and pale green are counterbalanced by darker shades of brown or grey and warm orange. Retro-influenced sofas come with heavily textured grey fabrics and wooden legs, with dark-toned woods featuring heavily in dining table chairs, accent chairs with dark green or navy plush fabric seats and backs, consoles and more. Harlequin rugs and cushions add warmth and contrast.
The furnishings are all about sleek lines and luxury fabrics, with pieces chosen to suit the apartments’ two-colour palette options. In the bedrooms, a mix of a blend of upholstered, rattan and metal beds change up the look of each bedroom and continue the mid-century elegance that flows throughout the homes.
Madison’s apartments feature artworks inspired by the mid-century modern feel, some of which were painted by local artist Laura Ashby, who has been a Quintain Living resident since 2017. Laura worked together with John Lewis & Partners and their supply chain to produce bespoke artwork prints for Madison.
Residents can choose between the light and dark colour palettes, a fresh light palette that incorporates greys and greens and an elegant dark one that’s all about dark wood tones and classic curves. The light palette features light sage and beige tones, with light blue tiled bathrooms, light brown wardrobe doors and worn ash effect wood flooring. The dark palette features rich blues and browns with dark blue tiled bathrooms, rustic barn wood effect flooring and dark brown wardrobe doors.
The result is apartments that feel warm and inviting – these are homes to relax and unwind in, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of London. Large windows fill the apartments with light and make the most of the exceptional views over the leafy Union Park – one of London’s first new large public parks in decades.
All apartments have been designed around contemporary life. They include 36 adaptable apartments for wheelchair users and disabled residents, while all two-bedroom apartments have two bathrooms, making them ideal for sharers.
