Bayswater Painters & Decorators

The terraces and squares of Bayswater.

Columned entrances, planted squares and busy shopping frontages sit close together in W2. These notes look at the actual building stock and conservation context behind a decorating enquiry, keeping Bayswater at the centre.

The streets and their buildings

Leinster & Kensington Gardens Squares

The garden gives a square its setting; the repeated windows, porches and cornices give it its order. A repaint here deserves attention at both scales, from the finish of an individual room to the relationship between adjoining houses.

Inverness Terrace & Porchester

Along Inverness Terrace, a building's public face can continue across several entrances while the rooms behind it have very different uses. Around Porchester, the brief changes again. We look at the address and the way it is occupied before defining the decorating work.

Queensway & Westbourne Grove

A flat entrance beside a shop, a mansion-block lobby and a mews doorway each have a different pattern of movement. In this part of Bayswater, access needs to be described as precisely as the finish.

Hyde Park Gardens & Lancaster Gate edges

At the southern edge of Bayswater, the entrance you use and the elevation you see from the park may be different sides of the same house. A useful decorating brief follows both, then describes the interior between them.
