David Carter is a renowned English designer who turned his London townhouse into the boutique hotel 40 Winks. After hosting fashion shoots and celebrity guests, he realized the space could be a luxury hotel. After 12 years of renovations, Carter opened 40 Winks, aiming to give creative guests an affordable but cutting-edge place to stay that still felt like home. He designed each room based on mood rather than theme, blending classic, eccentric, and kitschy furnishings. Photos provide examples of rooms featuring Carter's eclectic and whimsical design style.
