The Auria

: Notting Hill

Notting Hill is one of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods, known for its strong sense of community, vibrant cosmopolitan charm, and village-like feel that sets it apart from anywhere else. Situated on the iconic Portobello Road, The Auria captures this spirit through The Bohemia, a one-bedroom show home designed by award-winning interior designer Pandora Taylor for Peabody New Homes. The challenge to the designer was to capture the essence of Notting Hill, appealing to an array of markets and purchasers whilst invigorating excitement and sales off-plan.

“Notting Hill’s distinct character is weaved throughout the design and the show home feels like a sanctuary from city life, bringing the idyllic village-like feel from the neighbourhood into the apartment.” The home combines bold colours, natural materials, and a strong sense of place to reflect the area’s creative energy. From bark-like rusts and mossy greens to sunshine-yellow curtains and sky-blue walls, the design evokes warmth, comfort, and character. In the heart of the extensive Portobello Square regeneration, homes at The Auria form part of the 1,000 new homes being developed and offer residents a complete lifestyle experience, including access to landscaped gardens, a co-working space, a gym, and a concierge service. More than just a stylish interior, the show home at The Auria demonstrates how thoughtful design, sustainability, and community integration can redefine modern living. Through her creative vision, Pandora Taylor has crafted a warm, characterful sanctuary, establishing The Auria as a landmark example of design excellence within a transformative regeneration project.
