Hackney flat conversion

Whitman Wilde were appointed by the client to convert this former warehouse unit into an apartment. Originally built in the 1920’s as shoe factory, the space boasts five-metre high ceilings and original large crittal windows. Taking advantage of the volume, the proposal saw a mezzanine floor added to the back of the property to form a guest bedroom and study. Built-in joinery was used to maximise storage to ensure the space felt uncluttered. Warm oak was used as a floor and wall finish to contrast with the exposed concrete ceilings.
