A Victorian terrace receives an exotic twist

When our studio came on board this south London renovation, we re-drew existing plans for a loft conversion, conceiving a more functional bespoke space that housed a bedroom and bathroom, as well as overseeing the creation of a study out of a first-floor bedroom. Inspired by the owner’s antique wall-hung Chinese fan, we designed a scheme based around earthy textures with a hint of the Orient, including sisal wardrobe door panels with an oak trim (and a pop of jewel box orange within), natural woven flooring and bamboo elements.

For a tranquil, spa-like feel, the adjoining bathroom, built over the first-floor rear extension, is softly zoned with richly veined marble half-height walls, while terrazzo porcelain flooring and simple monochrome lines add a gently graphic note. We optimised every inch of space – even creating book shelves out of the void between the bedroom and bathroom wall.

“Krys has transformed our home, from hallways to our loft extension, and every space feels uniquely ours. She pushed us beyond our comfort zone in the best way, now we can’t imagine it any other way!”

“From creative solutions to the smallest details, Krys made every part of our home more beautiful and functional. Her passion is contagious, and she even helped me feel more confident in my own style!”
