Project: Full flat renovation
Goal: Enlarge the kitchen and achieve a warm industrial look
Surface: 80m2
Services provided: Space planning, new stairs, interior design, construction drawings, Sourcing.

CLIENT:

The client has been introducing to us from a colleague.

REQUIREMENT:

The client recently purchased a two-story flat but was unhappy with its appearance and the size of the kitchen. Additionally, there was a poor acoustic insulation between the living area and study. The client initially starts the project with other architect but then heard about our firm, which specializes in both architecture, interior design with a focus on joinery specification and construction phase.

SOLUTION:

We resolved the issues by creating a new layout that enlarged the kitchen by demolishing a small toilet and adding a stylish bathroom and en-suite on the upper floor. We also enlarged the stairs and added a bespoke wooden balustrade for character. We removed the existing dropped ceiling in the living area and exposed a well-finished concrete slab and improved the acoustic insulation on the wall between the living and study. We also added a new wooden floor in the living area and a beautiful sisal carpet in the bedroom with an attractive colour scheme.

RESULT:

The flat now has its own unique character with a warm industrial look in the living area, a stylish bespoke kitchen, and a larger and unique staircase leading to a cosy bathroom and en-suite on the upper floor. Despite a relatively low budget, we achieved a significant improvement in the property, which now stands out in the market and has already seen an increase in value.

CONCLUSION:

The client is extremely satisfied and left us a glowing review on our Google business profile, which can be found at the following link.
