A big linear space, not high ceilinged but light and white and bright, with large windows on three sides. A curved, raw brick half-circle creates a dynamic division within the living space, and provides a back-drop for the beautiful metal spiral stair that meanders up to the next level.
The otherwise white box is given texture and mood with a dark timber-lined ceiling, adding interest and warmth. The ceiling opens to form a roof light allowing light to flood in over the kitchen.
This three-bedroom house was built in the 1970s; the best bits were kept, refurbished and an extension added. In a vibrant part of London, close to the lovely green spaces of Highbury Fields, and it’s for sale… I could, could you?

J – looks like our Cat has jumped the gun already 🙂
I love this half-circle brick wall – wonderful design solution! It brings some coziness to the space. Wonderful article, thank you for sharing!
thank you for commenting – i think it’s a lovely and unusual solution too.
I have to say, the spiral stair case and that gorgeous ceiling are the two elements I am loving! Wonderful design overall, really fun room!
so glad you like it too!
This house looks so cosy. In Denmark we have a lot of brick houses and white minimalistic interiors, so this feels so Danish to me 🙂
yes, it’s these elements that appeal – the warmth and texture of the brick in a crisp, white environment.. wonderful to have your danish perspective, Marianne.
