Alteration to existing property, Within a Conservation Area
On this project we transformed a ground-floor flat by completely remodeling the interior, enhancing the flow, and natural light throughout the space. The design is characterized by a refined palette of just few materials, resulting in a tranquil, simple, yet extremely sophisticated environment. Every detail, from the built-in joinery to the lighting and soft furnishings, has been custom-designed and tailor-made to suit the space and its intended purpose. The distribution area features a contemporary frame wall molding design, defined by vertical and horizontal natural oak guides. These guides delineate door openings and built-in joinery, setting the rational for the rest of the house. To break the flow, at the end of a corridor, we introduced a striking brushed stainless-steel wall. Behind this wall, a concealed door discreetly hides a red travertine loo. The living area, a calm and simple space where a monolithic bespoke fireplace carved from a single block of Titanium travertine act as centerpiece. The same travertine connects the living room to the dining/kitchen area through a contemporary arch, creating a seamless continuation of the built-in units. The sleeping area, characterised by three bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms featuring clay plaster wall and cement floors with white bespoke travertine elements. The aim was to produce a timeless sophistication using a few carefully selected elements, proving that thoughtful design is the key to crafting enduring spaces.
