Design ideas for a small modern ensuite bathroom in Angers with a built-in shower, a wall mounted toilet, white tiles, ceramic tiles, grey walls, ceramic flooring and a trough sink.

We completed a luxury apartment in Primrose Hill. This is the second apartment within the same building to be designed by the practice, commissioned by a new client who viewed the initial scheme and immediately briefed the practice to conduct a similar high-end refurbishment. The brief was to fully maximise the potential of the 60-square metre, two-bedroom flat, improving usable space, and optimising natural light. 

We significantly reconfigured the apartment’s spatial lay-out – the relocated kitchen, now open-plan, is seamlessly integrated within the living area, while a window between the kitchen and the entrance hallway creates new visual connections and a more coherent sense of progression from one space to the next. The previously rather constrained single bedroom has been enlarged, with additional windows introducing much needed natural light. The reconfigured space also includes a new bathroom.

The apartment is finely detailed, with bespoke joinery and ingenious storage solutions such as a walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom and a floating sideboard in the living room. Elsewhere, potential space has been imaginatively deployed – a former wall cabinet now accommodates the guest WC.

The choice of colour palette and materials is deliberately light in tone, further enhancing the apartment’s spatial volumes, while colourful furniture and accessories provide focus and variation. Photographer: Rory Gardiner

Die Beheizung der Gebäude erfolgt über Wärmepumpen mit Lüftungsanlagen und Wärmerückgewinnung. Die Gebäude sind nicht unterkellert haben aber einen an die Garage angeschlossenen Abstellraum. Beide Häuser besitzen einen massiven Kern welcher Temperaturspitzen egalisiert und die solare Energie speichert. Hierfür sind Teile der Innenwände im Erdgeschoss sowie die Decke in Sichtbeton errichtet. Alle Lüftungsleitungen sind direkt in diese Ortbetondecke eingelegt. Die Außenwände und die Dachkonstruktion bestehen aus Holzelementen die beim regionalen Holzbauer vorgefertigt wurden. Als Dämmung der Innen- und Außenwände kamen ausschließlich Naturprodukte wie „Hanf- und Holzfaserdämmung” zum Einsatz. Als Fassadenverkleidung wurde eine vorpatinierte, astfreie Weißtannenschalung ausgeführt, welche mit dem Umfeld korrespondiert.

Die Wände im Kinderzimmer wurden in Grau & Weiß gestrichen. Genauer gesagt in dem hellen Weißton K/0-0-6-0/T & dem Farbton RAL 7030. Kolorat // Karina @ohwhataroom

Eine grosszügige Durchreiche verbindet das Esszimmer mit der Küche. So wird nicht nur die Raumfolge grosszügiger und luftiger, sondern es entsteht auch ein sehr kommunikativer Ort an der Bar. Foto: Sorin Morar
