This house was completely renovated, creating a living room with glass doors that can be closed if needed, and a dining/working space that utilises all the space to it's best advantage. In the living room, the wool and silk rug subtly picks up the colours in the original fireplace surround and hearth, unifying the room.
The house had to work hard -- both parents often work from home, and two teenagers needed to study, relax and entertain friends in the space. We made sure it was flexible enough to accommodate all needs.
