Redrawn with the imaginative eye of Michaelis Boyd, this second-floor apartment sets an inspiring stage for city living.
Embracing a loft-style aesthetic, architectural innovations energise a hushed palette of hues in the open-plan kitchen and reception room. A convivial space to unwind or entertain, swathes of sunlight filter down from a butterfly vaulted ceiling. Playful patterns and textures infuse personality, from painted brick detailing to considerately sourced wooden floors, carefully reclaimed from a mill in France. Just sink back into the sofa and relax.
Inky cabinetry crafts a considered space to cook, with smooth stone worktops lit by spotlights overhead. Suspended pendant lamps bring an air of intimacy to dining, with a Rose Uniacke table that seats eight. Post-dinner, settle into one of the antique 70’s Italian armchairs.
Come evening, two bedrooms are calming sanctums to rest or relax. In the first bedroom, a considered synergy between light, texture and tone unfolds. Alcoves are primed for artwork or oddities, while custom cabinetry frames the bed to enhance the sense of space. In warmer months, draw back the curtains to an intimate balcony – an idyllic spot for morning coffees. Considered styling and acquired antiques adorn the second bedroom, where soft furnishings echo a lively wall of artwork. Enhanced with natural light from two tall sash windows and a skylight above, this soothing setting invites relaxation.
Serving both bedrooms, a sophisticated bathroom is enveloped in deep navy hues. Crafted with hand-made tiles, a walk-in rainfall shower completes the sleek space.
The home additionally offers impressive eco-credentials, with solar and thermal panels fitted on the roof.
