Top floor studio back to brick with limes and walnut
This top floor flat had been a very small studio, cramped and cluttered. By opening up the none load bearing walls, inserting a dividing stud and a dormer, I was able to create a one bed apartment, adding value and also more importantly, style!

Right, that's me done (in) for the... Continue Reading →
