In a city known for its iconic design history, interior designer and diversity consultant Natasha Landers (@untillemonsrsweet) has created a home that pays homage to London’s industrial heritage while boldly pushing aesthetic boundaries. Her 1,200-square-foot house showcases how thoughtful design can transform everyday spaces into extraordinary environments.

The kitchen, anchored by £4,500 (about USD 5,500) worth of rubber flooring, exemplifies Landers’ innovative approach to materials and space. A striking copper pipe lighting installation inspired by the London Underground map demonstrates her ability to elevate industrial materials into artistic statements. The space seamlessly blends high-end pieces from Vitra with discoveries from IKEA, eBay, and Etsy, proving that good design transcends price points.

Throughout the home, bold color choices make fearless statements, from the sunshine-yellow flooring to forest-green accent walls. In the living room, builders’ scaffolding boards have been reimagined as window shutters, while vintage mid-century pieces sit comfortably alongside contemporary furnishings. The design creates an environment that’s both daring and livable, shared with her Cockapoo, Reggie.

Perhaps most striking is Landers’ carefully curated art collection, which focuses on Black portrait art by Black artists. These pieces don’t just decorate the space – they give it soul and context, reflecting both her personal heritage and professional commitment to diversity. Each room tells a story of thoughtful curation, where every element, from the ornate gold mirrors to the industrial light fixtures, plays a crucial role in the overall narrative.

This London home stands as a testament to the power of personal expression in interior design. Through her fearless mixing of high and low, industrial and refined, Landers has created a space that does more than follow trends – it sets them, while remaining deeply personal and authentically lived-in. Her home proves that the most compelling spaces are those that truly reflect their owners’ personalities and passions.
