デザイナーの意見

This is a classic exercise in small apartment living. Located next to a square in Bayswater, this is Dan’s own home. Resisting the temptation to squeeze in two bedrooms, the flat was reconfigured from a wreck into a spacious 1 bedroom home. A sombre hallway with very tall double doors veneered in macassar ebony is in deliberate contrast to the bedroom and sitting room to make them feel even lighter and fresher. It is possible to leave the doors open and see from one end of the flat to the other, extending the eye and making the flat feel bigger.
