Natural light pours through a glass floor in the kitchen into a basement playroom with white resin floors below.

Mews House

From outside this former stables looks like any other compact mews house on the cobbled street; inside is a different matter. The team has created a new basement as well as converted the attic, transforming the interior into a spacious, four-storey family home.

Double-height spaces, skylights and a section of glass floor allow natural light to flood into the space. Doors fold and walls slide to allow for an easy fluidity of interconnected spaces and also to maximise and conceal storage.

A staircase passes up through the double height space at the front of the house flooding the kitchen/dining space with natural daylight.
The open plan living and dining area opens onto a pretty garden terrace with full width sliding glass.
