This flat refurbishment is situated in a former school building constructed in 1847 and was subsequently converted into a school in the early 21st century. The two-storey property, conceived as a solid piece of joinery that is slotted into the original apartment volume, is formed from 30,000 individual blocks of oak. This impressive form consolidates all primary functions of the property into a single element. This in turn helps to celebrate the historic features of the host building within the double storey void, including windows, glazing and cornicing.
This existing art studio in Hoxton was artist Julian Opie's HQ for almost 20 years and this extension and refurbishment allows the lifespan of the building to be significantly extended and for the workspace to be significantly enhanced. The aluminium clad extension and integrated rooflights allow light to flow into the studio spaces and offer a sense of calm against the frenetic series of existing industrial buildings.
This new build house in Clerkenwell is located atop a series of listed vaults that were a prison in the 1700's and is simultaneously overlooked by a large former school building that replaced this house of detention. Due to this restrictive context, this project sought most of its light and views from carefully crafted rooflights that forms an expressive ceiling element throughout. Views of the shared gardens can be attained through a large slim framed aluminium window, whose base is a bespoke concrete framed fireplace. The property is clad in reclaimed London Stock brickwork that is intended be read as a continuation of the existing historic boundary wall of the old prison. All joinery, doors and wall panelling are formed of oak and is intended to act as a datum that separates the floating form of the ceiling from the concrete floor plinth.
The clients' eleventh floor, two storey apartment with an early 2000's building overlooking the Paddington Basin always felt like a resultant space. The challenge was to transform these two disparate levels into one connected whole. A concrete pier links both levels, forming a balustrade that wraps around a Dracaena tree the clients have owned for 21 years, a unique and personal experience within the property. Low internal doors and cramped floor to ceiling heights due to the ceiling mounted air conditioning units meant that the tenth floor felt smaller than it was. By utilising vertical air conditioning units and concealing these within joinery, the floor to ceiling heights were drastically improved. To further enhance the connectivity across this level, full height, douglas fir doors were introduced, allowing the continuation of the floor and ceiling planes between rooms. Bespoke matt black joinery replaces the tired kitchen units, enveloping the space. The removal of the island opens up the eleventh floor, giving the clients a dedicated dining area that was not previously possible.
Located in Barnsbury Conservation Area, the existing configuration involved a one bed basement flat below a two storey house. The initial premise was to combine both together to form a larger property, however the key to the design was to connect the spaces internally, allowing
