Were channelling Mies van der Rohes oft-cited aphorism ‘less is more as we welcome in 2018. Weve selected six properties, currently on the market, with calming minimal interiors to inspire a fresh start for the new year.
Maynard Road, London E17
The upper floor of this Victorian apartment in Walthamstow Village is clad entirely in birch-faced plywood. The consistency of the material gives the space a satisfying serenity, with details added from matt black fixtures and external cladding of burnt Siberian larch, which is visible through window recesses.
St John Street, London EC1
This pared-back warehouse apartment in Clerkenwell is designed as a singular space, celebrating the original fabric of the building with great honesty. The living space is demarcated by a rectangular birch-ply floor, whilst a succession of concrete pillars along the centre of the room provide natural breaks.
Bishops Way, London E2
This terraced house near London Fields has been immaculately redesigned by the award-winning architect Carl Turner. The palette of plywood and polished concrete ties the open-plan living spaces together, and creates a distinctly modern, calming environment. The details of the bespoke joinery, and the curated use of plants, add subtle detailing to the interior.
Cliff Road Studios, London NW1
This duplex apartment, built in the 1960s to a design by the Modernist architect Georgie Wolton, has a vast skylight in the double-height living space, creating a beautifully bright, open area. A minimal open-tread timber staircase leads up to the mezzanine level.
Assington, Suffolk
This expansive barn conversion was described by the architect as being ‘of cathedral-like proportions, and has vast, considered interior spaces. The master bedroom is designed with impeccable bespoke joinery and polished concrete floors.
Beresford Road, London N5
Recently completed to a design by the award-winning architects Russian for Fish, this Canonbury apartment maximises the light from the front bay window. The large living room has textured concrete walls and flooring, whilst colour is added by a striking yellow galley kitchen at the heart of the space.
