The heritage of Covent Garden’s iconic market was the inspiration behind the creation of Floral Court’s luxury apartments at the heart of London’s West End. The blend of contemporary with historic architecture was balanced perfectly with the introduction of a newly created public courtyard. This public realm formed the centre point for the forty-five apartments that occupy six different buildings, three of which are listed. Every apartment was designed to be unique, a characteristic reflected in the stunning beautiful Arabescato Corchia marble cladding, handpicked at source through CIE’s extensive networking of industry professionals.
