I am absolutely head over heels in love with this home (a three-bedroom Grade II-listed terrace house of Georgian architecture in Bristol’s Cotham and Redland Conservation Area, with an 18th-century façade, and spans 2,000 sq ft over five storeys).

I dream of a room that has enough light and space for a potted tree. I dream of sitting at a dining table within a kitchen, with a wood burning fire keeping the space cozy and warm. I dream of bookcases. I dream of a mudroom, with lots of footwear storage….

London Apartment

Soaring through the interiors of a Victorian-era terrace in London this contemporary staircase is not only a means to move from floor to floor but an allegory for moving from the historical bones of the building to its new modern incarnation. London Apartment by Quincoces-Dragò & Partners.
