The recipient of a RIBA Award in 2017, this incredible four/five-bedroom house can be found nestled on a gated, cobbled mews in the Clerkenwell Green Conservation Area. Built in the early 1900s, originally for use as a brewery cooperage, it is the subject of an ambitious and beautifully executed renovation by Chris Dyson Architects. Internal accommodation approaches 4,000 sq ft over five expansive levels, including a substantial roof terrace.
The result is a wonderfully considered renaissance of an industrial past and a masterful marrying of materials, new and old. Combining concrete, black steel and exposed brickwork the architects have created a home that is at once versatile, warm and aesthetically arresting.
