Chelsea Creek is also located at the heart of Chelsea’s world-famous design district and neighbours the Design Centre in Chelsea Harbour, the world’s premier destination for design excellence. The Design Centre has an extensive portfolio of 120 showrooms and over 600 of the most prestigious luxury brands, making it the largest of its kind in Europe and a thriving creative platform for a dynamic design industry. Designed by award-winning architectural practice Squire and Partners, Chelsea Creek is a stylistically rich quarter, that draws upon the historical and cultural elements of the local area, whilst incorporating the nearby meandering waterways that flow through the heart of the development. Combining refined city living with blissful tranquillity in a prime central London residential location, the development is part of the wider regeneration project spearheaded by St George and St William to develop the neighbouring Gasworks into a high-quality residential offering. Squire and Partners looked to leading European cities to inspire the design which ensures that bright, contemporary apartments overlook restful canal waterways and tree-lined boulevards. Open public space makes up half of the development, with landscaped gardens, lawns and richly planted beds offering places to sit and unwind, complete with the meandering waterways, making it perfect for a serene afternoon stroll, to create a refreshingly unique urban lifestyle. Michael Squire is clear that Chelsea Creek epitomises European waterside living, stating that: “Our vision for Chelsea Creek was to bring a characteristically European feel of waterside living to London and we looked to Amsterdam and Copenhagen to inform the design. We replaced the traditional English garden with waterways and tree-lined promenades. It is a place of great character and charm”. Fairwater House is the latest phase at Chelsea Creek and provides a selection of one- and two-bedroom apartments. These apartments are beautifully designed with contemporary interiors to complement the stylish living of West London.
