With views across the Thames, a library, gym, private members' club, and a glass pool that magically hovers in the sky, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Embassy Gardens couldn't get any more impressive. But the newest addition, The Capston, would prove you wrong. Saving the best until last, The Capston marks the final stage of Ballymore's transformative development project in Nine Elms.
Situated directly next to the American Embassy, this sprawling, Art Deco design riverside development contains an impressive 247 residences, each thoughtfully curated by design icon Bryan O'Sullivan. In this project, the designer, best known for his work at London's most prestigious hotels, including Claridge's and The Connaught, has applied his distinctive blend of Art Deco artistry with contemporary considerations to what are sure to be some of the most desirable apartments in the city. When so many modern developments pride themselves on convenience and innovation, abandoning the beauty and importance of art and craftsmanship, The Capston stands as a counterpoint.
