Northacre at Home Series Northacre

This week we speak to serial entrepreneur Alexander Amosu. Alexander started his first business at the age of 12 earning £10 a week through doing a paper round. Since then Alexander has been awarded a grant from the Princess Trust and at the age of 25 made his first million from the launch of his company RnB Ringtones.

Today Alexander runs his own eponymous lifestyle company and media title, Lux Afrique. Hugely passionate about all things luxury, Alexander shares what inspires his work, an insight into the African market, his clients’ and the importance of a story and connection when investing in a London property.

Following the launch of our first No. 1 Palace Street show apartment, we speak to Interior Designer, Natalia Miyar, to learn about the vision for the space and her thoughts on the luxury landscape. Named as one of Conde Nast’s House & Garden magazine’s Top 100 Designers, Natalia’s natural and learned ability to blend comfort with glamour has been honed in her transatlantic practice of architecture and interior design.

Today we speak to industry stalwart Michael Squire, founding partner of Squire & Partners. Michael’s eponymous practise has worked on some of the most exciting buildings across the world - both commercial and residential. Michael shares what makes working on No. 1 Palace Street so special and why mixed-use developments like The Broadway will be key to the way we live and work post-pandemic.⠀
