A few weeks ago we’ve been shooting the luxury Saint James Hotel & Club. The victorian building has recently been renovated by the award-winning interior designer AMJ Design, from Berlin.

Fine handmade silk wallpaper, black lacquered furniture, hand crafted Murano glass chandeliers and gold leaf ceilings provides the place with a refined albeit warm atmosphere.

The St. James’s Club has a long and distinguished history. It was founded in 1857 by the English aristocrat Earl Granville and Marchese d’Azeglio, a Sardinian Minister and was intended as a London base for travelling diplomats. Its original home was in St. James’s Street and as well as an international clientele it attracted a number of important members of the British upper classes such as Lord Randolph Churchill and Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild. The new design of the place successfully echoes its history.
