London based studio Amin Taha Architects renovates residence at Caroline Place with open-living layout<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Amin Taha Architects<\/strong><\/em> is a team of young designers from London that explores modern architecture<\/strong> <\/em>within simplistic aesthetics. They have already developed a wide range of products including an outstanding residence in\u00a0Bayswater<\/strong> <\/em>neighborhood.<\/p>\n

\"Amin<\/a><\/p>\n

The interior design project <\/strong><\/em>features a level topped basement made in rugged concrete soffit, as well as a lightwell set into a courtyard garden.<\/p>\n

Located at Caroline Place<\/strong><\/em>, the modern residence<\/strong> <\/em>is part of a brick terrace, which features a layout emblematic to Edwardian homes<\/strong><\/em>. It also includes areas for servants and utilities such as sculleries, coal stores and a working yard.<\/p>\n

This interior design<\/strong><\/em> concept was quickly considered outdated leading to renovations in subsequent decades to create more open spaces.<\/p>\n

\"Amin<\/a><\/p>\n

Studio Amin Taha Architects <\/strong><\/em>\u00a0was given the task to update the residence, which is now inhabited by a family of five members. The goal was mainly to design<\/strong><\/em> open-plan living spaces that feature tactile materials and finishes.<\/p>\n

\"Amin<\/a><\/p>\n

Along the space, housing bathrooms, wardrobes, folding screen<\/a>s<\/strong><\/em> and sliding doors were used to not only accentuate different rooms but also be able for alterations when friends or guests come over.<\/p>\n

The architects made sure to maintain secrete spaces to the family, playfully revealing hidden rooms and passages.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the first floor an open-plan reception area features a study area in one corner than can easily turned into a bedroom by rotating a pivoting wardrobe\u00a0unit incorporating a pull-down bed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The designers extended the roof and basement levels, opting for a structural brass-framed conservatory and lightwells that open onto the patio garden.<\/p>\n

This concept enables plenty of natural lighting even on underground spaces.\u00a0To emphasize the subterranean character of the basement, rugged concrete soffit was left exposed, creating a textural finish.<\/p>\n
