The Art of Modern Luxury at Aspen House
PROJECTS 09.01.24
Nestled within the lush grounds of Buckinghamshire’s Chalfont St Giles, the Aspen House is a mid-90s neo-Georgian residence with a renewed sense of luxury and refined charm. Spanning an impressive 6,000 square feet, Callender Howorth’s visionary refurbishment elevates this home to an impeccable standard, blending understated elegance with powerful design statements that reflect the personality of the homeowner.


Reflecting both contemporary sophistication and subtle Nigerian influences, Callender Howorth crafted each room as a statement of warmth and hospitality. The entryway sets the tone with Arabescato marble floors, accented by dark grey trims that frame the space with perfection. Overhead, a custom glass chandelier dazzles, its colours inspired by a prominent artwork on the mezzanine, casting a warm and inviting glow throughout. This signature fixture, developed in collaboration with a specialist glass-blowing workshop, brings an exquisite handcrafted element to the home, seamlessly tying together colour, form, and lighting.
Aspen House’s open-plan layout effortlessly accommodates large gatherings, with generous, luxuriously appointed spaces for entertaining. The living areas are adorned with bespoke furnishings and rich textures that create a comfortable yet polished ambiance.
The kitchen-dining area features a minimalist palette of soft greys, marble surfaces, and sleek metallic accents, creating a refined and elegant atmosphere. The airy space is anchored by a sculptural glass-top dining table with a bold, geometric base, while the delicate branch-inspired chandelier above adds an organic glass that perfectly complements the room’s clean lines and natural light.
