One thing that you can trust about life, whatever it may be, whether it is? That it is going on. In frequent changes we find unexpected coincidences and memorable discovery, which was the case for Tanya Grigoroglao and Rupert Warol, for creative directors London Art gallery Raw versionIn 2019, he came to a London Ro House – in his favorite neighborhood, Clafum, yet. As specific to this part of the city, it was a Victorian terraced house, which was just more than 1500 sq ft, with a long brick. Calm and dark, it was hardly any natural light.
Grigoroglu and Warl wanted their home to be ideally merged two originally, to combine two to live and combine working places. Their ideal home will make everyday family life easier with children, while allowing them to display postmodern and contemporary functions that focus on raw versions. This is where architects O’Sullivan Skoufoglou Enter the story. With a deep sense of making flexible places and using a variety of materials, colors, and designer pieces, London firm, established in 2016, was able to build a hybrid, multiculture house, where life and work go on hand in a remarkable manner.
How the architects get work
Dynamic, creative, flexible, multidisciplinary – these were the adjectives that used the customers of O’Sullavan Scofoglu when they described the house they wanted they could make for them. It should connect a gallery and a house, family life with a passion for art. It was also to be completed on a large scale within the current footprint of Victorian, which was presented another challenge (extending the building will give separate height of the garden). This quickly became clear to o’Sullivan skoufoglou that the floor plan would have to be changed to improve the circulation, light and functionality of the house. The windows will also need to be canceled.
The architects wanted to create separate places, preserving the spirit of openness. For example, nearby studies are also fitted with sliding doors, and the newly designed staircase separates the upper floors from the gallery space at the ground level. It provides both an essential separation and a smooth transition at a time. “Conversion of the two lower floors and the transfer of the kitchen into the basement was probably the most important change for the design concept,” says Amalia Scofoglu. The new entry now goes into the gallery area, where windows from floor to roof provide a view of the garden, and the sliding doors add ability to secrecy.
