Holborn Penthouse

The redesign of this top-floor apartment was born from the wider refurbishment of a 1920s office building and reimagined it into a private, light-filled space with contrast and flow. We built with a quiet, neutral base and layered on rich tones to bring a sense of depth and intimacy.

A bedroom corner with a red upholstered headboard, a patterned pillow, a wooden nightstand with a glass vase with white flowers, an alarm clock, a decorative bowl, a book, and a small black candle jar. There is a wall-mounted white globe light and a colorful landscape painting on the beige wall.
Minimalist bathroom with beige marble walls, large mirror, white floating vanity, black soap dispensers, a wicker laundry basket, a small beige stool, a wall-mounted towel rack with a beige towel, and a vintage wall sconce light.
Living room with a sofa and coffee table in the foreground, separated by a glass wall from a kitchen with an island and dining table in the background, decorated with plants and artwork, in a modern home interior.

Antique pieces were layered alongside contemporary forms, strongly grained wood veneers added depth to joinery and vintage accessories brought a personal touch to the home. Space planning intentionally keeps the fluidity and light as you walk around the expansive space, gently divided by beige-framed glass doors.

Brightly lit interior space with a ceiling skylight, wooden wardrobe, patterned rug, and a bar area with shelves, plants, and framed artwork on beige walls.
Corner of a stylish home bar with open wooden shelves holding liquor bottles, a wine rack with bottles stored, and a granite countertop decorated with a framed picture, a small vase with white flowers, books, a modern lamp, and decorative items.

Warm neutral tones in the bathrooms through natural stone and off-white Zellige tiles with polished plaster walls in the kitchen to bring some subtle age and character into a new space.

We wanted to create contrast and harmony for the client in an expansive yet grounded apartment, offering moments of calm above the bustling city.

Living room with cushioned sofas, a patterned ottoman with books and tray, wooden shelves, and a glass partition revealing an office area with desktops and shelves.
