Collector’s Flat in London
Design: MATA Architects
Location: Central London, England, UK
Our client, a couple with two teenage children (both at or starting university) were downsizing from a large house. They wanted to transform the existing 4 bed flat into a 3 bed flat of the highest quality. The transformation would include structural alterations to the layout and new services for new bathrooms.
As collectors of art and antiques, our client’s brief centred on the desire to create space (wall & floor) to display and enjoy their collection in their day-to-day lives.
The flat had not been modernized in over 40 years. Whilst in many respects this offered huge opportunities for total transformation, it also meant that the layout was of a totally different era; many small and compartmentalized rooms where now more open space is wanted. MATA Architects would need to remove walls and sections of walls strategically in order to open up the flat. However, being on the second floor of a six storey mansion block meant this was not straight forward.
