Studio apartment

Interior design concept

My client's well connected London studio apartment meets his residential and commercial requirements, functioning as a calm sanctuary and a conveniently located home studio.

A collector of unique artefacts and personal items, and an eclectic wardrobe (catering for hikes, conferences, leisure and work), David requires adaptable and functional storage space to display or store these objects, avoiding a ‘clinical gallery space’ atmosphere.

The interior must maximise the limited space, natural light, balcony access & views, by creating practical zones, comfortable spaces to relax, read, cook and sleep, with uncluttered ample storage space, practical surfaces.

Respecting the humble 1970’s planning, design and architecture, the kitchen and bathroom should have functional fixtures and fittings, be as spacious as possible, while minimising impact on the overall layout.
