Above, a mezzanine level creates a flexible additional space - ideal as a low-slung study area, occasional sleeping platform or relaxed storage space - making imaginative use of the apartment’s height and character.The recessed kitchen, bedroom and bathroom are arranged off the main living space, while the bedroom has direct access via a spiral iron staircase leading down to the garden, creating a distinctive flow between the apartment and the outside environment.
