In the heart of Clapton, East London, you’ll find this sleek warehouse conversion from the architects at Sadie Snelson. Previously divided into separate small rooms that let in little natural light, the fresh open-plan update is dressed in black and creamy pale timber to create the ultimate photographer’s work and living space.
Unpainted walls expose the plaster finish, accentuating the industrial theme that continues throughout the steel-beamed residence. Meanwhile, a white-tiled kitchen sits underneath the mezzanine level, while a staircase made from welded steel leads up to the cosy master bedroom and tadelakt shower.Finally, with no shortage of space, the living area opens out onto a small wooden terrace — something that can be hard to find in London’s eastern quarters.For one place not short on space, take a look inside some of Dubai’s ridiculously luxurious fashion hotels.
