Decorating All Saints Road

All Saints Road is one of Notting Hill's most characterful and well-known streets, a short Victorian mixed-terrace road running between Westbourne Park Road and Powis Gardens that has evolved from a bohemian enclave into one of the neighbourhood's most fashionable addresses. The street is lined with two and three-storey mid-Victorian stucco and brick terraced properties interspersed with independent boutiques, restaurants, and cafés that give it a lively, village-like atmosphere. It falls within the Notting Hill Conservation Area, with a strong community identity and a history of colourful painted frontages that reflect the street's creative character.

All Saints Road's mix of residential and commercial frontages presents a variety of decoration briefs, from the careful repainting of stucco terraced houses in conservation-sensitive colours to the bespoke shopfront finishes that contribute to the street's distinctive character. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea's conservation area guidance requires that external colour choices are sympathetic to the Notting Hill area's traditional palette, and many property owners seek bold but historically informed colour schemes.
