The refurbishment of a maisonette in East London turned what was once a dark interior into a well proportioned living space. The project looked to find ways to reimagine a very compact home, making for flexible living.

Fixed joinery was used to frame the ground level and provide ample storage to retain a clean and open feel. The living room and kitchen was divided by a large central shelving unit that doubles as a place to keep all of the clients items, including the television. All of the workings for the house, including the heating and electrical systems were also concealed within
this unit to ensure the rest of the space could be maximised and be as flexible as possible. The material dialogue speaks throughout all levels and reflect the family that live there. With emphasis on durable and natural finishes to make living easy.
