ermondsey coach house
The project was to convert two floors of an 18th C coach house in Bermondsey. The major constraint was the lack of direct sunlight.
The living room was moved to the upper level, where there was the best available natural light. External walls, formerly shot blasted brick, dark brown and light absorbing, were given a lime / sand slurry and painted white to bounce the light around. Exposed timber and steel beams were fire protected and also painted white. Engineered Natural White Ash flooring was used throughout for a natural blank canvas and also used as cladding and for built-in joinery.
