Working within the shell of an existing flat, this project required a complete reconfiguration of the floorplan. With the original flat comprised of a 40m² bedroom and small kitchen, bathroom and living spaces, our response was to create more proportionate rooms, which also enabled us to add value by creating a third bedroom and a shower room, while bringing daylight into the living area from two directions. By retaining some original wooden ornamentation on the walls, incorporating precise joinery work and introducing intelligent storage space, the practical use of the apartment was maximised while creating continuity and respecting the original charm of the space.
