Inside An Open-Plan Canal Boat in Central London | Design Notes

Rachel Allen welcomes us into her open-plan barge, situated in Central London. Designed, conceptualised and decorated entirely by Rachel, the barge is a marvel and quite unlike any preconceived notions we might hold of canal boats. Rachel’s interior education shines through in the decoration of her boat, from the Robert Kime-esque textiles and box bed to an effortless sense of layering learnt from her time with Rita Konig. It is filled with antiques collected from around the world as well as textiles with a rich and fascinating history. Watch the full episode of ‘Design Notes’ as we tour Rachel Allen’s barge on a Central London canal. #Barge #Canal #London #InteriorDesign #HouseGarden Watch more from House & Garden | Design Notes: Watch more from House & Garden: Subscribe to House & Garden ►► CONNECT WITH HOUSE & GARDEN Web: Twitter: Facebook: Instagram: Pinterest: Newsletter: ABOUT HOUSE & GARDEN House & Garden has, for 70 years, set the gold standard in design and decoration for the home.
