A Victorian terraced townhouse set over 4 storeys, remodelled to create a contemporary home for a growing family.
The clients wanted their home to work more effectively for their family and storage was key. Happy to increase the size of the basement to include a utility and wine storage, they wanted to maximise the floorplan to include a pod with an extra bedroom.
In terms of design style, we were briefed by the owners of this property to create a contemporary, urban design, with features such as antique mirrors and jewel like teal blue tones in the joinery, to add a glamorous touch.
Throughout, the property now features a modern, classic palette of deep blues and pale neutrals, combined with pops of bright colour and gold finishes.
Our design team completely reconfigured the ground floor to include a spacious rear extension, complete with a kitchen / family room, powder room, and a formal dining and living room. Bespoke kitchen and joinery throughout the house were made by HUX London. We created a side infill extension providing the extra space to make this possible.
The kitchen is designed with storage space as a priority, so includes a full wall of dark green cabinetry, as well as a large central island complete with waterfall marble top. Light floods the kitchen and dining area on the ground floor through 5 large Velux roof lights, with task lighting provided through pendants such as the Tom Dixon light above the island.
Opposite, the dining area has a more relaxed aesthetic with a natural wood table and bench seating. A gallery wall, oversized chalk board and quirky, mis-matching pendants complete the scheme.
Beneath the ground floor, the basement includes a utility and wine cellar. The rear pod extension allowed for an extra bedroom on the first floor, which was redesigned to incorporate a master bedroom, with ensuite and dressing room.
A similar rich colour palette and soft, comforting textures have been used in the guest bedroom, whilst the final bedroom is designed playfully for the client’s young child, complete with a map of the world mural wallpaper and a variety of primary colours to inspire.
The family bathroom is a real statement room in the property, with a large brass bathtub taking centre stage from BC Designs. Floor to ceiling emerald marble tiles from Fired Earth compliment the gold tones and black hardware adding a bold finishing touch.
