When viewings aren't possible

It goes without saying that, right now, marketing properties is neither essential nor an emergency. The property market is largely at a standstill due to the government lockdown, and the war against the uncompromising and deadly Coronavirus.

However, where possible, work to showcase homes can continue. If a property is vacant and sensible precautions are taken, we can capture it! The 3D Walkthrough tour is becoming a popular way to view a home without making an appointment to see it. Through the comfort of your own home, you can navigate around like you are actually standing in it. And with a VR headset you can really immerse yourself!!

Like this new build house, for example, that we captured last week for Savills in Victoria Park, London.

Kenninghall Rd, Clapton, London E5 8BS, UK.

Savills are now able to show people what they are selling in full detail. Their customers are free to ‘wander’ around the house like they were there to see it. It may not beat feeling the carpet beneath your feet, but in rather challenging times, this could prove to be a vital tool for many.


Lillie Square, Earls Court: Dazzling Interior Architecture

Lillie Square is a stunning new residential development near Earls Court, a venture which involved turning a 7.4 acre car park into 808 new homes. As Phase 1 of the construction has been completed and largely sold, we were lucky enough to be instructed to shoot one of the flats and the communal areas.

And oh, the communal areas! We shoot a lot of properties and a lot of impressive architecture and design, but Lillie Square’s Clubhouse and residents’ pool really are something a bit special. We were delighted to be able to photograph these beautiful places - have a look and see what you think!

This beautiful pool makes use of asymetrical shapes and serene lighting along with natural stone to create a calm haven.

Plenty of space to relax and a separate jacuzzi to dip into

Aaaaand relax.

Vast areas of glazing allow plenty of light into the foyer area.

Coffee, anyone?

We love the way the double height ceilings are divided here with this installation.

And nothing beats a beautifully balanced staircase.

Moving through to the bar, the lighting becomes more intimate as the flow of the building moves away from the natural light of day.

Tucked away around a corner, the bar has a cosier feel to it.

And moving through further still, feast your eyes on the wine room!

The colour scheme and decor style here are far more traditional, but not without their nods to the contemporary with this fabulous light fitting.

A running theme we found throughout the development was perfect balance, the space utilised to the optimum with no overcrowding or starkly empty areas.

But always plenty of areas to relax!

And last but not least, don’t forget the cinema room! Because of course there’s a cinema room.

Bravo to the Lillie Square design team who created this lovely place to live!
