The brief
A young family wanted their tall, narrow townhouse to feel generous and quiet — a place to slow down after long city days, with room for two children and a lot of books.
The challenge
Deep rooms with light from one side, a patchwork of past renovations and almost no storage. Every extra cupboard risked making the house feel smaller.
The solution
We pared the palette back to limewash, pale oak and travertine, then hid storage inside full-height joinery that reads as wall. Layered lighting on three circuits lets each room shift from bright workspace to evening calm.
