A complete overhaul of an Edwardian home that hadn’t been touched since the 1950s, requiring renewed plumbing, electrics, ceilings and walls, as well as an extension and loft conversion. A palette of blues underpins a blend of vintage finds, graphic shapes and quirky design motifs. Exposed brick detailing nods to the architectural roots of this home, whose ground floor has been extended to house a kitchen-diner suitable for family living, while two living areas have been opened up to one another. We also reworked the original kitchen into a separate downstairs cloakroom and a discreet laundry. Texture plays a key part in this renovation, from micro cement and aged brass finishes, to a modern take on classic encaustic tiling via a contemporary graphic geometric for the hallway flooring.
