Decorate like royalty: Inside Will and Kate’s apartment
Add royal style to your space with inspiration from the prince and duchess’ home.
When royal couple Will and Kate released a family photo at the window of their Kensington Palace quarters, including a chubby-cheeked baby George and their dog, Lupo, we started wondering what kind of beautiful interior lay behind those famed brick walls. After all, the prince and duchess recently renovated apartment 1A at the palace, former home of Princess Margaret.We’ve discovered the young family lives in a twenty-room four-floor section of the palace the length of a city block, and the couple share a bedroom (apparently an unconventional move for married members of the royal family), but have separate bathrooms. There’s a playroom and nursery for Prince George, three bedrooms, three kitchens and five reception rooms. Style-wise, the Duchess of Cambridge was heavily involved in the decorating, favouring neutrals and earth tones, according to reports. In her clothing picks, Kate favours mixing high and low and their home is a reflection of this ethos. A mix of pricey items loaned from the Royal Treasury, like a $50,000 Persian rug, and department store picks like faux-fur throw blankets and $50 platters from Zara Home.
