Inside An Open-Plan Canal Boat in Central London | Design Notes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 янв 2024
- 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.

Her - “I wish I was cooler”
Girl, you live in a fantastically decorated BOAT.
I know right
Yes I thought that too 😂. Beautifully styled. Don’t kid yourself girl, you’re pretty darn cool 😉
She wishes she was cool....but she actually IS cool 😊 love this style and her fabric selection
I know right👊🏾
This is like being in a lovely story book. The water, fabric, black stove, everything.
I appreciated the honesty of this space. Nice things, well arranged without the "designer" look, feels like home. How refreshing!
Absolutely enchanting. One can’t be far off the mark with Robert Kime as a mentor.
And Rita Koenig
@@rocklobstah1876 Did I also hear Will from Jamb too? You can see Roberts influence everywhere on the boat.
This is the prettiest canal boat ever 🥰
How absolutely beautiful! Rachel created such a charming and cosy space, I couldn't love it any more. Thanks so much for sharing this.
The best design notes in a while! I absolutely love her quaint and charming little boat. It looks like the perfect cottage in the inside.
Right to out of a storybook ❤
She is so lovely. Her little Westie❤❤❤
This is incredible 😍 I LOVE how everything in her home has an interesting story/history. So much character and style!
What a magical episode. I'm twenty-something and I've always been drawn to living in the country, coastal and surfing communities, every once in awhile I dream of living a colourful, cultured city life but am hesitate as I like the quiet, cozy and slow spaces. After watching this I am perhaps considering a move. Thanks Rachel!
I know what you mean. I love the idea of the City and all that it offers - the music, food, theatre, galleries, markets, diversity etc, but find the reality very hard to deal with and am happiest by the sea and surrounded by a rural landscape. I admire, so much, people who thrive in cities and who manage to get the most out of them. She seems so calm in such a bustling place. Good luck, if you do make the move.
What an interesting old soul Rachel seems to be, love love love her canal boat and the way she's furnished it, would be quite happy if that was my home!
I visited the canal in London this past summer. It was wonderful to see all the barges and community around them. Right in the middle of the busy city you have this tranquil area. Truly magical. This barge home is absolutely gorgeous. Who knew that you could have an Arga on board! I love everything! Thank you so much for sharing! 😊💜
What a beautifully decorated home. The wood stove really adds to the ambiance.
So charming !! It feels so much bigger than it is, she has been very clever with her design. I love the little dog and the swan(?) being handfed out the window 🥰🥰
what a adorable person she is!
What an absolute delight! It must be a joy to live in such an exquisite home. Thank you.
This is so beautiful and stylish I suppose everybody would want to live like this for awhile. Thank you, Rachel
I was not expecting that.... WOW! Looks incredible inside.. ❤❤❤❤it's not for everyone, but flow with her
wish we had this opportunity in the states. l love the canal boats. Love this layout
You are a true ambassador to your boat! ❤ it’s unreal! Robert Kline! Yes I see much influence! ❤❤❤❤ how lucky you are to have worked for him! i won a trip to Oxford years ago and saw all those gorgeous boats on the canal and wondered how magical it would feel to live in one! Now I know! The peacock chair is so perfect in your space and the art and linens make everything so cozy!
Oh wow I absolutely love this! It's so cozy! And Arsenic is my favorite paint color, so it's really fun to see so much of that type of green.
Hermosa deco, valiente aventurera, romántica vida. Hermoso todo 😊
Her- You are cool, my dear! Your canal barge is beautiful and so well designed. Lovely.
This was so enchanting I've just watched it twice.
Better stop now...
What a beautiful space. My favourite feature in a while.
You did an incredible job decorating your canal boat. I love your Granny Chic style!
Υπέροχη διακόσμηση,υπέροχα χρώματα,όμορφος άνθρωπος...!!! ❤️
Wow just wow
Sa cute home. I love the fabrics used .
What a delightful home. I especially love the box bed.
Stunning and homely. Love it
You cannot be any more cooler than this! The most beautiful canal boat I have ever seen!
SO ,so charming. I love boats. You've done a wonderful job. Enjoy it in good health.
Hi House & Garden/ Design Notes, team! I have a small request: can we have a playlist of all the lovely music you guys use for this series? a Spotify link maybe? Thanks!
So so lovely and that green is perfection 😍
Just beautiful!
So cosy & tastefully done. The green is calm & beautiful 💚
Love the Arsenic Green. One of my all time favorite colors. Lovely lady, lovely voice. Don't think I could live on it full time but as a second home it would be awesome. Nicely styled, chic, cool and fun.
That's just absolutely so cute! Love the interior color.
That was fabulous! Loved it all, thank you. 😊
Rita Kong is a great interior designer, I can see the wall colour is the same or similar to her country house living room 👏🏻👏🏻🔥, your wide beam home, is a welcoming & inviting space 🙏🏻🇬🇧❤️xxx
There's a lot of tips for owners on how the can transform their floating abode into a cozy and stylish sanctuary.💚💚
Beautiful Open Spaced Boat. I love your design!
Oxford is nice too!! Honestly your home is beautiful x
So charming. Love the boat and boat life (except for the mosquitoes in the summer).
Just gorgeous home, person and dog, the trifecta🇦🇺🐨🦘
If you worked for Robert Kime and have been helped or influenced by Rita Koenig you are a very talented and lucky person. They are my favorites and like anything that Robert Kime did and Rita is incredibly talented.
Between this and @krisatomic I’m about to leave my family behind and take to the canals of England 😂 so lovely and cozy though!
👍👍👍💖💖💖💎💎💎✨✨✨
Po prostu rewelacja!Nie dla ludzi,którzy kierują się modowymi nowinkami i starają się nadążyć za trendami.To wnętrze jest stabilne,ma charakter!Widać,że śliczny piesek dobrze czuje się tam czuje.
Beautiful home! ❤️❤️ Would love to see House & Garden do these videos more frequently.
What a treat! I could live there forever with a tutorial on boat life. Incredible use of space. And the colors. I used arsenic green in my dining chairs and my bed and was excited to see it here.
Love seeing some Irish ceramics dotted about
Too adorable for words
I love everything about this incredible, beautiful home on a barge! It’s charming, comfortable and functional. Well done!
Absolutely beautiful!
Utterly enchanting
Absolutely delightful!
So charming. Love it!
Cute boat, love that its traditionally decorated. The mashrabiya i feel would've looked better natural.
Gorgeous boat interior ❤
Brilliant. What an excellent way to live.
Love it!
Thanks for sharing your story..
This is just wonderful, I want one, too!
So charming and simply lovely.
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Oh wow! Such a dream .. I'm sure it's an adjustment and has its inconveniences but I think it's so awesome.. a bit of a huck and finn lifestyle? It's decorated really charmingly❤❤❤!!!!!
Gorgeous ❤
Gorgeous home
Magic ✨🤍💙
So lovely
Spectacular 💚
Time machine or a vivid dream, well done !
LOVE EVERYTHING
I love it!
Gorgeous
Before I married, when I thought I might be single for the rest of my life, I really considered canal boat living & wanted something that looked more like this than fitted out like a boat.
Stunning
6:06 "After a while, when I saved up a bit more dosh..." Haha, never heard that expression before :D
Holy mackerel! That is the largest peacock chair I’ve ever seen. Very cool space…
So cool.
charming!
LOVE... sublime!
Love it ❤
So unique
I❤ it!!😊😊
I miss my peacock chair! I love the arsenic green too! Beautiful widebeam x
❤❤❤❤this is E V E R Y T H I N G !!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Just magic ❤️🙏
perfect..........
Simply beautiful. Definitely carrying on the legacy of the great Robert Kline :)
What a lovely home. I love the box bed. And the fact she managed to get an AGA on it and have a really good sized living space makes it beautiful. But I'd do away with the bath. That's cute but totally unnecessary with the shower and would free up space for a little office.
Stunning and magical! ✨and I somehow want to meet Rachel and her beautiful Westie (I think it's a Westie). Her space and style are truly similar to mine (albeit hers is more elevated). This was wonderful (Also would not be me if I do not say "Is this where they shoot Peaky Blinders! Such a barge culture in that show).
Love that she chose a poisonous arsenic green!!
I nearly didn’t watch this as I find the thought of living on a boat slightly depressing! But this house boat is quite inspiring ❤️ ⛴️
❤Adorabile
And yes you are cool - the coolest. So sensible to beat the flat and apartment and house prices in London.
So so cosy. What fun it would be to sleep in that bed!
Oh my goodness my ideal home. Love it. How did you obtain it and did you build it up from the hull? Love to hear and see more. You have decorated it so beautifully. It is gorgeous.
Lovely. But where is her pantry?
