Inspiration för en funkis hall, med betonggolv, grått golv och beige väggar

A wall of iroko cladding in the hall mirrors the iroko cladding used for the exterior of the building. It also serves the purpose of concealing the entrance to a guest cloakroom. A matte finish, bespoke designed terrazzo style poured resin floor continues from this area into the living spaces. With a background of pale agate grey, flecked with soft brown, black and chalky white it compliments the chestnut tones in the exterior iroko overhangs.

Hier wurde der Raum optimal unter der Treppe ausgenutzt. Dank den Echtholzschubladen, gibt es Platz ohne Ende!

La ristrutturazione di questo appartamento in provincia di Varese rappresenta un raffinato esempio di come l'uso del colore possa trasformare gli spazi abitativi. Il progetto, curato nei minimi dettagli, ruota attorno all'impiego di diverse tonalità di blu, un colore che è stato il filo conduttore dell'intervento. Per il living e la cucina, è stata scelta la delicata sfumatura Carta da zucchero, che conferisce agli ambienti un'atmosfera serena e luminosa. Nel bagno padronale, una gradazione più intensa del blu crea un effetto rilassante e sofisticato, mentre per il bagnetto di servizio è stato scelto un tono più acceso, che dona vivacità e freschezza. L'appartamento si presentava inizialmente cupo e poco arioso, con la classica distribuzione degli anni '70 che penalizzava la luminosità e la funzionalità degli ambienti. La decisione strategica di traslare la cucina ha permesso di ridimensionare l'enorme bagno, che i nuovi proprietari trovavano eccessivo e poco pratico. L'ingresso, che originariamente mancava di carattere, è stato completamente ridisegnato. Approfittando di una nicchia preesistente, è stata installata un'ampia armadiatura che funge anche da cappottiera, offrendo una soluzione pratica e elegante per l'organizzazione dello spazio. Uno degli elementi più distintivi del progetto è la grande porta trasparente 'a sipario' in stile industriale. Questo dettaglio architettonico non solo divide gli spazi in modo funzionale, ma aggiunge un tocco di carattere e personalità all'arredamento. La scelta di un arredo volutamente semplice e minimalista riflette in pieno i gusti e le volontà della giovane coppia che oggi abita l'appartamento. La ristrutturazione di questo appartamento dimostra come una sapiente combinazione di colori, scelte progettuali intelligenti e attenzione ai dettagli possa trasformare uno spazio datato in una residenza moderna e accogliente. Il risultato è un ambiente che unisce funzionalità ed estetica, in perfetta sintonia con lo stile di vita e i desideri dei suoi abitanti.

Einbaugarderobe mit handgefertigter Lamellenwand und Massivholzhaken Diese moderne Garderobe wurde als Nischenlösung mit vielen Details nach Kundenwunsch geplant und gefertigt. Im linken Teil befindet sich hinter einer Doppeltür eine Massivholz-Garderobenstange die sich gut ins Gesamtkozept einfügt. Neben den hochmatten Echtlackfronten mit Anti-Finger-Print-Effekt ist die handgefertigte Lamellenwand ein highlight dieser Maßanfertigung. Die dreiseitig furnierten Lamellen werden von eleganten massiven Haken unterbrochen und bilden zusammen funktionelles und gestalterisches Element, das einen schönen Kontrast zum schlichten Weiß der fronten bietet. Die darüber eingelassene LED Leiste ist mit einem Touch-Dimmer versehen und setzt die Eiche-Leisten zusätzlich in Szene.

A tired, small 1970's house was refurbished and extended to become a modern, light-filled, sunny family home. The original house didn't take advantage of its leafy, expansive site, so the extension pushed north and opened up to the sun and outdoors. Living areas flow onto spacious, sunny outdoor areas to the north, and a generous hallway flows through to a new pool and the mature, leafy trees of the neighbouring park. A strong, geometric form sits wide on the site and its pitched roof creates open, airy, light-filled interior spaces. High windows give glimpses of the sky and surrounding trees, and side windows provide a green, leafy outlook to the reserve next door. A muted but rich finishes palette and carefully designed cabinetry complement the lofty architecture. This busy young family can now live and thrive in their beautifully spacious, well-functioning home.

Like many 1920s houses, this double-fronted home in Muswell Hill had been extended haphazardly over the years, preventing any natural flow and blocking light from a large part of the footprint. Our clients wanted more space – and better space – for their family. Our first move was to unlock the ground floor by clearing two sight lines. One leads straight through the house from the front door to the bottom of the garden, and the second looks up – with the help of a new galleried staircase – though the upper storeys to the sky. Inspired by Horace Gifford’s airy east-coast beach houses, we allowed the extended open-plan living areas to link and overlap, giving room to circulate without compromising on space. We’d already set out these core moves when our clients asked us to push the project further. Could we add a basement too? Our response was to challenge them back: what exactly would they use the space for, and how would the extra area justify the considerable expense? Having tested a few different scenarios we all agreed that this was a great opportunity to embed social sustainability into the design. We could future-proof the house so Nicola and Stanford, and their extended family, can continue to live in it indefinitely no matter how their lifestyle might change. The new basement, although it’s currently used as a gym, screening room and bar, can potentially become a self-contained apartment in the future, allowing multiple generations to live under the same roof. It has its own bathroom and, via a sunken courtyard garden sandwiched between the original house and timber-framed extension, outside space and plenty of natural light. And, as the couple’s sons gain more independence, a pair of self-contained bedrooms inserted into the second-floor loft space offer a similar degree of privacy.
