Before founding her eponymous studio, Linda Boronkay was the Design Director of Soho House, helping to define the aesthetic of the iconic international hospitality brand. Working on foremost projects including Soho House Hong Kong, White City House and Soho Farmhouse, Boronkay brings her archetypal style to The Sessile, with an eclectic and elegant approach.

Linda Boronkay embraced a sensorial and multi-layered approach to designing The Sessile, pairing ornate pieces with modern lines, glazed tiles and tactile fabrics. Through her selection of materials and variety of finishes, Boronkay infuses the interiors with energy and creativity. The yoga studio uses soft woods, combined with rich fabrics to create a relaxing feel and the shared dining space incorporates ornate fittings and marbles, combined with subtle textiles in contrasting shades.

Throughout The Sessile bespoke rugs add another layer of colour and shape to the spaces, enriching the overall aesthetic. In addition, the carefully curated artwork enhances the natural narrative with softpastel tones and elements like birds, plants, and sculptural pieces made from tactile natural materials.

Quintessential to Way of Life buildings, each space within The Sessile is designed to be multi-functional, using techniques like drapery to allow residents to change the function or ambiance of a room. Inspired by postmodern forms and shapes, the design incorporates elements from past artistic movements, evident in the joinery handles, graphic veneers in the gym, custom neon artwork in the vinyl room,and bold colour accents throughout the building.

The 10th floor rooftop Orangery brings the greenery of the surrounding parks and marshes into the building and creates an oasis of calm. The space invites the outside in with skylights and greenery, and leads out onto large terraces, which boast views across the city. The design is deeply rooted in the rich tapestry of its neighbourhood, a vibrant and diverse community, encircled by the local area of verdant parks, reservoirs, built-up residential zones and the picturesque Walthamstow Marshes.

Private terraces or balconies with every apartment and double-glazed floor-to-ceiling windows welcome in light, whilst the open-plan design lends itself to flexible layouts. True to Way of Life’s experience-led offering, The Sessile is carefully designed for life and leisure with amenities that help fosterconnection, with co-working spaces and communal living areas. To nurture community among residents, Way of Life have partnered with local creatives and wellbeing partners to devise a bespoke programme of events, talks, workshops and classes.

Linda Boronkay, Founder of Linda Boronkay Design Studio, said: “Our goal was to create a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like an extension of the residents’ apartments, encouraging them to build their own communities or find moments of solitude in comfortable, cosy spaces. My designs for The Sessile weave together the area’s historical narratives, a variety of materials, rich colours, lush planting, and textured fabrics, with attention to detail from the joinery and lighting to the curtains and artwork. In essence, The Sessile is a blend of history, nature, and creativity, designed to foster community, inspiration, and a sense of home for its residents.”
