4 Princelet Street, Spitalfields, was built in 1723. Though it is no longer serving as a residence, over the past 300 years it has housed Huguenot silk weavers, the grandson of the founder of Truman Brewery, various laborers, a Polish Jew (a tailor) and his family among others. It is currently hired out for filming and events. I got to see the inside during an exhibition by Gagosian Gallery of the early works of Christo, which were staged throughout the house. This is one of my all-time favourite buildings in London and I walk by often. Here's a shot of the exterior:

Spiral staircase, The Cosmic House, Lansdowne Walk, Holland Park. This post-modern house was designed by Charles Jencks and his wife Maggie Keswick Jencks. It was the primary residence of the Jencks family from 1978 until Charles Jencks death in 2019 (Maggie, for whom the Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres are named, died in 1995). The house is Grade I listed.

The palazzo was designed and built in its current form in the 15th century by the architect Giovanni Candi as one of the city residences of the Contarini family. Giorgio Spavento is believed to have been responsible for the addition of the grand spiral staircase on the exterior in 1499.
