To dwell and establish connections with a place is a basic human necessity often combined, amongst other things, with light and is performed in association with the elements that generate it, be they natural or artificial. And in the renovation of this purpose-built first floor flat in a quiet residential street in Kennington, the use of light in its varied forms is adopted to modulate the space and create a brand new dwelling, adapted to modern living standards.
From the intentionally darkened entrance lobby at the lower ground floor – as seen in Mackintosh’s Hill House – one is led to a brighter upper level where the insertion of wide pivot doors creates a flexible open plan centred around an unfinished plaster box-like pod. Kitchen and living room are connected and use a stair balustrade that doubles as a bench seat; this allows the landing to become an extension of the kitchen/dining area - rather than being merely circulation space – with a new external view towards the landscaped terrace at the rear.
The attic space is converted: a modernist black box, clad in natural slate tiles and with a wide sliding window, is inserted in the rear roof slope to accommodate a bedroom and a bathroom.
A new relationship can eventually be established with all new and existing exterior openings, now visible from the former landing space: traditional timber sash windows are re-introduced to replace unsightly UPVC frames, and skylights are put in to direct one’s view outwards and upwards.

This living-dining room perfectly mixes the personalities of the two homeowners. The emerald green sofa and panelling give a traditional feel while the other homeowner loves the more modern elements such as the artwork, shelving and mounted TV making the layout work so they can watch TV from the dining table or the sofa with ease.

Modern attic teenager's room with a mezzanine adorned with a metal railing. Maximum utilization of small space to create a comprehensive living room with a relaxation area. An inversion of the common solution of placing the relaxation area on the mezzanine was applied. Thus, the room was given a consistently neat appearance, leaving the functional area on top. The built-in composition of cabinets and bookshelves does not additionally take up space. Contrast in the interior colours scheme was applied, focusing attention on visually enlarging the space while drawing attention to clever decorative solutions.The use of velux window allowed for natural daylight to illuminate the interior, supplemented by Astro and LED lighting, emphasizing the shape of the attic.
