This stunning five-bedroom, six-storey family home in Islington is the result of a meticulous three-year collaboration between our studio and long-time clients. The property underwent a significant transformation by Chris Dyson Architects, including a basement conversion, frameless new attic windows, a full restoration and a rear extension. The result is a contemporary home with an eclectic twist, where modern interventions seamlessly enhance the building’s historic charm. Bespoke joinery plays a major role in the home’s design, from a sleek drinks bar to a statement media unit that conceals the TV behind elegant sliding doors above a modern fireplace. Throughout the home, luxurious finishes add depth and character, including wallpapers and murals from Elitis, Arte, and Cole & Son.
I love how risks were taken throughout this home by designer Mia Karlsson, it is 100% unique and each space had its own personality to coincide with the activities that would occur there. Photos: Ben Sage.
