This property is a two story penthouse city apartment. The building is old and has all of the wonderful original features that go with old buildings. My client wanted to mix old and new and create a modern but comfortable space for everyday living while also being able to entertain and treat his guests to a luxurious guest bedroom and en-suite bathroom. The project required a complete refurbish of the two floors, site conditions were challenging at times with five flights of stairs to come up with all materials and back down with disposal of rubbish. I went with a very contemporary handle-less kitchen that sinks into the back wall without making too much of a statement in the room, while the kitchen table makes a real statement. The glass fronted bathroom simply hangs from the top landing ceiling creating a glass box to allow light to pass through and an electric blind smoothly drops from the ceiling to allow the bathroom privacy when in use.
