CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

"Rachel transformed our Grade II listed home into a flexible space for both living and working. Her thoughtful reconfiguration and clever storage solutions allowed us to display our collection without the house feeling cluttered, while sustainable and affordable materials brought warmth and character throughout. The result is a calm, functional and highly personal home that reflects exactly how we wanted to live."

HAVE A SPACE THAT NEEDS RETHINKING?

PROJECT KALLAX

CLIENT

Yodomo

LOCATION

Hackney Wick

SCOPE

Retail and workshop fit out

APPROACH

Circular design and reuse

Yodomo needed a space that could switch between retail and workshop use without a fixed layout for total flexibility.

 

The design gives them exactly that: everything moves, everything can be reconfigured and the environment works equally well for a customer browsing textile remnants and a group of participants in a making workshop.

Equally important was doing this without buying new. The budget was tight and the values were clear: everything reused where possible, nothing wasted. The result reflects what Yodomo stands for, which is the best kind of brief to work with.

CLIENT

Private Residential

LOCATION

Boundary Estate, Tower Hamlets

SCOPE

Residential redesign and storage

APPROACH

Creative space planning

A listed flat with more character than storage, owned by a couple who both work creatively and have the collections to show for it.

 

The redesign gave them a home that could flex around their working life — a front space that serves as dining room, office or spare bedroom depending on the day and enough storage to display what they love without the flat feeling overwhelmed by it.

Working within the constraints of a listed building on a conservation estate, the result is a flat that finally reflects the people who live there rather than the practicalities that had been holding them back.
