Gallions Place (Residence One)
| Services: | Gold Furniture Package |
Instyle Direct's successful working relationship with Countryside Partnerships London South, London's leading property developer, led to another show apartment at their Gallions Place development.
Design Lead Maggie Halsackda and Sales Manager James McNeil selected our White Gold Furniture Package and added feature wall services to transform the striking, 3-bed maisonette to boost interest and promote sales, leading to immediate success.
Having executed numerous furnishing projects for the renowned developer, the InStyle team was familiar with what was required to push sales. Maggie employed colour blocking throughout to add personality without making the unit appear smaller. As the rooms are very bright, it allowed for deeper shades by Farrow and Ball that wonderfully contrasted the spacious flat's ambiance. This also enabled us to keep decoration costs down with minimal paint use.
As the target audience for this show flat was young professionals, the designer clearly differentiated the different zones — social, work, or relaxing spaces. The selected furniture offered extra storage which is often high on the list of prospective tenants.
Maggie also focused on demonstrating how well plants can grow in the unit and strategically placed them in spots where the windows let in beautiful, warm light.
A particularly speedy completion was required as the client wanted to use the three-bed apartment for a marketing event called Meet the Designer — which was a great success. The developer organized the event so that James and Maggie could speak with the attendees and conduct a well-designed presentation.
"A number of customers who wanted to learn about designing their properties visited this event, and one of the clients actually made an offer for this apartment on the night. My advice to the designers would be not to be afraid of colors; dark colors and light spaces are bound to become best friends."

Bespoke elements such as the brown coffee table, green suede chair, and soft grey sofa with multi-pattern throw pillows created a welcoming, calming, and luxurious atmosphere. They helped viewers envision life at the apartment and the development.
With this project, Maggie successfully transformed the quaint unit inside-out into a chic home, generating tremendous interest among investors, landlords, and tenants.
“I recently had the pleasure of working with InStyle Direct on a full refurbishment and furniture design project for my flat, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.
From the very beginning, their team took complete control of the project, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. Their communication was outstanding throughout – I was kept informed at every stage, and any questions or ideas I had were handled promptly and professionally.
What really sets InStyle Direct apart is their attention to detail and design expertise. They truly understood the vision for my home and elevated it beyond what I had imagined. The furniture selection, layout, and overall finish are absolutely stunning – every piece feels thoughtfully chosen and perfectly placed.
The final result is a beautifully designed, modern living space that feels both stylish and functional. I’ve had so many compliments already, and it genuinely feels like a brand-new home.

“I had a genuinely pleasant experience working with InStyle Direct and would highly recommend their services. Over several weeks, I was in constant communication with James via phone calls and WhatsApp messages, and he consistently took the time to understand my needs and my vision for how I wanted the penthouse to look.
As this was my first time in the property game, James was incredibly patient, supportive, and reassuring throughout the entire process. My company had recently acquired a brand new, unfurnished penthouse in Milton Keynes to rent out, and I wanted the space to feel clean, modern, luxurious, and elegant.
James delivered on this perfectly and also spotted essential details and design elements that I had missed. I was given a wide variety of furniture and design options to choose from, making the whole process straightforward and stress-free. I even outsourced some furniture myself, and James and his team went the extra mile by building and setting it up free of charge, which I really appreciated.
Any issues or changes I raised were handled promptly, and anything I wasn’t fully happy with was fixed without hesitation. I was also given a complimentary discount on the total cost, which was a great gesture and much appreciated.
Overall, the service exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be using InStyle Direct again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to furnish a high-end rental or investment property.” Read More
“I had an exceptional experience with Severina and Mark from the InStyle Direct team. Engaged to provide bespoke furnishings for our London flat, they truly provided a wonderful service every step of the way. They listened to our requests, even going so far as to provide sustainability information for everything we ordered, as requested (and taking into account sourcing, materials, etc. from both a planetary and human health perspective). And the final result was absolutely stunning - so much better than I'd imagined. They were really creative with furnishing a small space and making it both elegant and eclectic, capturing a vision I didn't know I'd had! They also went out of their way to support us with several follow-ups, including replacing an item that we'd damaged as a goodwill gesture. They were responsive and very easy to work with. I simply can't say enough good things about my experience with them! I'd recommend Severina and Mark (and the supporting team) without question to anyone looking for high-quality interior design services in London. Thank you!” Read More
“I used InStyle Direct’s furnishing service for my newly purchased flat located in Farringdon. I have to say my general experience is excellent.
First of all, their products are all of top quality and fair value.
Secondly, the company is equipped with professional designers who listened to our needs and preferences very patiently. They ended up producing a nice package to our satisfaction.
Thirdly, their delivery and installation were also very punctual and staff all courteous and even cleaned the place properly upon completion.
Fourthly and most importantly, I highly recommend a Mandarin-speaking staff member namely Lily, who dealt with the entire process with unparalleled diligence, absolute patience, timeliness and professional integrity.
I wish the company and especially Lily well and prosperity in their future business.” Read More
