60 Curzon Unveils Art Deco Inspired Residence in Collaboration with Elicyon

60 Curzon, a boutique collection of 32 private residences in the heart of Mayfair, today unveils the first in a series of uniquely curated homes. The debut show apartment, designed by interior design studio Elicyon, marks the beginning of ongoing collaborations with  distinguished designers set to unfold at the development in the coming months. This announcement follows a significant milestone for the scheme this June, as 60 Curzon achieved practical completion.

Located on the former site of famed Mayfair restaurant, Mirabelle, – once frequented by notable figures such as JFK and Winston Churchill – 60 Curzon’s inaugural show apartment exhibits a masterful blend of Art Deco influence with a contemporary twist. Within the first and only private residential building in Europe designed by legendary French architect Thierry Despont – renowned for his Art Deco interiors and distinguished projects including Claridge’s and Ritz Paris – the Elicyon designed apartment pays reverence to the building’s stylised glamour and linear geometrical façade crafted by PLP Architecture.

Through thoughtful curation of vintage and contemporary details, Elicyon has crafted an inviting four-bedroom apartment with a natural flow that radiates warmth. Spanning 4,209 sq. ft., the home is defined by soft curves and rounded silhouettes, with subtle motifs identifiable in the textured wallpaper, bespoke cabinetry, and rounded furniture seen throughout.

Elicyon’s meticulous layering of unique antique pieces, including original Art Deco walnut side tables and a checkered oak cabinet in the guest bedroom, alongside a bold pair of reupholstered powder blue ground-hugging armchairs in the principal bedroom, creates a gallery-like atmosphere. Building on this aesthetic, statement vintage pieces such as a 1936 maple wood grand piano and a 300kg 19th century marble urn, not only pay homage to the site’s heritage but also serve as striking focal points, anchoring the apartment’s design in history and craftsmanship. An Art Deco scalloped dressing table chair from Marylebone Antiques, a bespoke shelving unit crafted by Rochford Joinery, and olive-green glazed tile bedside cabinets by British ceramicist Matthew Raw, further reinforce the apartment’s Art Deco feel.

Echoing 60 Curzon’s history as a fine dining destination, and in anticipation of a new restaurant that will soon be welcomed on the development’s ground floor, Elicyon has expertly shaped an environment that blends the art of entertaining with the appeal of personal retreat. Welcoming communal areas are enriched with intimate details, striking the perfect balance between social vibrancy and reserved comfort. In the dining room, a bespoke Tamu Ash Veneer, antique mirrored drinks cabinet, an antique bar trolley, and the Chappell Baby Grand Piano all honour 60 Curzon’s culinary legacy, establishing the ideal setting for hosting.

Recognising 60 Curzon as Mayfair’s newest residential landmark, Elicyon mirrors the elegance and cosmopolitan flair of this iconic London neighbourhood through the apartment’s curated mix of global furnishing and art. Mirroring Mayfair’s blend of history with modern luxury, Elicyon has blended vintage pieces with contemporary furniture, reflecting the style of a well-travelled resident who values both historical and modern design. Designed to serve as a natural extension of the apartment’s elegant interior, an expansive 807 sq. ft. terrace has been styled with playful outdoor furniture, oversized antique planters, and verdant greenery, bringing a sense of whimsy to this rare outdoor sanctuary in the heart of prime central London.

Charles Leigh, Director, 60 Curzon, comments: “We are excited to be launching 60 Curzon’s interior designer collaboration series with Elicyon. This palatial apartment elegantly tells a story that celebrates the distinctive charm of 60 Curzon’s address whilst incorporating authentic Art Deco details. The result is a refined yet inviting home, offering a rare sense of tranquillity in the heart of Mayfair, at a pivotal moment for the neighbourhood which is currently experiencing a renaissance”

Charu Gandhi, Founder and Director of Elicyon comments: “Collaborating on the inaugural show apartment for 60 Curzon has been a unique opportunity to capture Mayfair’s storied elegance within a contemporary setting. We drew inspiration from the building’s architectural heritage and crafted a space that seamlessly balances Art Deco influences with modern comforts. Every detail, from the restored vintage pieces to the custom furnishings, was selected to create an atmosphere that feels timeless yet fresh – a perfect reflection of the vibrant and historic character of this iconic address.”

Beyond the sophisticated interiors, the future resident of the apartment will also enjoy exclusive access to 60 Curzon’s state-of-the-art amenities, including a pool, gym and treatment rooms. The building’s club lounge and temperature-controlled storage will also be available for the storage of personal items like fine wines, whiskies, and cigars.

The apartment is on the market for £24,750,000.
