Duplex Refurbishment | Yoo | Architects for St Johns’ Wood
Refurbishment / Interior Design
A prestigious residential duplex refurbishment, located in St. John’s Wood, North West London has been completed by forresterarchitects.
This impressive two bedroom duplex refurbishment in a Manhattan style is set on the top floor of this exclusive property in St. Johns Wood, North West London. The property was recently acquired by our Client. The penthouse required a fresh approach to enliven the interior design of this luxury apartment. A simple muted palette was more suited to the client’s taste. An open plan configuration was desirable replacing the opulence of the previous Rococo interior.
The refurbishment comprises of a large lounge room, dining room and bespoke Italian kitchen. The kitchen is a simple galley counter arrangement and situated across from the dining room. Full height kitchen units form a back drop to the kitchen counter which conceals the cooking and dishwashing appliances. Beyond the main living space, a series of secret doors conceal two large bedrooms, each equipped with its own private bathroom. The bathrooms are simple in arrangement with a freestanding honed marble bath, which is a key design feature to each bathroom. The penthouse benefits from two large exterior terraces which provide views of the London roof-scape.
The building located within the London Borough of Westminster. It is a luxurious and maintained apartment building with 24-hour concierge service. It was a telephone exchange and was converted into 38 flats in 2001.
