This magnificent 10,000 sq ft new build house situated on one of Roehampton’s most desirable streets had been beautifully designed and built to an extremely high specification. Milc were asked to furnish the interior in preparation for the property to be marketed for sale. Due to the scale, finish and location, the property had to appeal to a refined and affluent target market. The client wanted to ensure that the furnishings enhanced and worked harmoniously with the features and meticulous finish of the house. So as not to detract from the fantastic features of the property, Milc opted for clean lines and sophisticated neutral colour schemes throughout. Attention to detail was paramount in order to complement and enhance the luxurious finishes.

Photo: Adrienne DeRosa © 2015 Houzz Save for a few refinements, the layout of the space took shape exactly as Weiss had envisioned it from day one. Knowing that they were looking to design a loft-like environment, the couple kept to an open layout for the majority of the living space. One of the most fantastic features of the space is a bank of clerestory windows that flood the interior with seemingly endless amounts of daylight. Originally added back when the building served as an artist studio, Weiss and Carpenter agreed that keeping them was a must. "The only original part of the house is the ceiling and the existing skylights and clerestory," Weiss describes. "We basically changed everything else." The ceiling compliments the contents of the environment, but also continues the story of the homeowners' design philosophy. "We loved the original wood and steel ceiling, including steel beams forged at the Carnegie Steel Works," Carpenter explains. "In coming up with our design approach, we wanted to reflect some of the previous uses of the structure ... Keeping elements from the past not only interested us aesthetically." he says, "It was important to us to reuse structures and objects in ways that are close to their originally intended use."

LED step lights are recessed into the concrete wall to provide soft light on the patio. In the kitchen the shelves floating on the concrete wall are back lit with LED strip lights. Additional kitchen lighting is achieved with fluorescents mounted above and below the cabinets. A pendant hangs within the breakfast nook. Photography: Joe Fletcher Architect: Feldman Architecture
