The new kitchen area sits at the rear of the house within an open-plan kitchen, living and dining space. The island has become the new gravitational point when family visit or when the couple are entertaining.

The porch functions as a sunny place to overwinter plants and as a great place to read or entertain guests in the summer.

This bathroom, designed by interior architect Thomas Griem, enjoys a spectacular view over the city of London. Griem’s idea for the interior design was based on the concept of photography inspired by the views over the city. He has used the architecture of the windows to frame these vistas with breathtaking effect. This is particularly so in the master bathroom where a full-height window provides a panoramic view over the rooftops of the City. the capacious free standing bathtub by Clearwater Baths is strategically placed under the picture window. “When you are sitting in the bath, you are essentially a part of the cityscape” says Thomas. “It weighs 300 kilograms and it took six men to carry it up seven floors!”.
