🏙️ Project Highlight: Hampstead 🏙️

Black and Milk has the opportunity to reimagine a luxurious residence in the esteemed Hampstead area, which the award-winning Claridge Architects designed.

This gorgeous home was featured in London's annual Open House event, showcasing the best of contemporary architecture and sustainable design.

Our vision going into this residence was to help enhance the generous open-plan living space and three en-suite bedrooms, ensuring each area reflects a blend of style and comfort.

The house sits within a beautiful private garden, boasting 2.7m high ceilings and floor-ceiling windows that flood the rooms with natural light.

🛋️ Design Challenges and Solutions 🛋️

We embraced the challenge of integrating sustainable materials like Kebony, a tropical hardwood alternative, into the design.

This environmentally conscious choice not only adds to the home's aesthetic appeal but also aligns with modern sustainability principles.

✨ Notable Features ✨

There are so many features we love about this residence, but most notable are the following:

Stylish Child’s Bedroom: The mostly neutral child's bedroom features an oversized floral pattern wallpaper on one wall for a ‘wow’ factor. Dusky-rose curtains complement the look, creating a scheme that is both sophisticated and youthful.

Vibrant Master Bedroom: The master bedroom is adorned with natural fibre wallpaper in woody brown and a bed upholstered in dark blue-grey fabric. The bright mustard piping extends to the velvet sofa, balanced by pale walls and floors, crafting a unique yet relaxed environment.

Generous Open-Plan Living: The spacious open-plan living area is designed for both functionality and style. The idea was to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living with its floor-to-ceiling windows and garden views.

What do you think about the layout? Any recommendations?

Wow, I really like this design and the rest of the house....really has a lovely flow to it and is very bright. My only concern with opening up the original living room to the hallway would be that the existing house is poorly insulated and would leave the front room cold during the winter. I imagine the existing front room as a dynamic room in that the doors to the dining room can be closed, a stove fire turned on and it would be a quiet reading/relaxing zone in the house. Though I must admit...the above example provided is really tempting. thanks Dytecture!

What would you do with this kitchen? Help!

You need some kitchen accessories kettle etc that tie in with the red and also some artwork. The red you have chosen looks on my monitor to be a cool red, perhaps a bit of a warmer shade would help. i would also extend the dining area curtains down to the floor, they will cosy up the space, as would a statement rug to give a bit more life to the room. If your living room is green then it may be nice to have some token green of the same shade, somewhere in the kitchen, a plant or some artwork, and add a bit of the kitchen red to your living room, so that there is some continuity of colour in your home, as opposed to having two separate colour boxes and never the twain shall meet..

We all use Houzz - What other tools do you use?

I've had a look at free offerings for floor planning software. It depends on the level you want to go to. Sweethome3D http://www.sweethome3d.com/ is truly free because it's open source (no fees if you want to draw more than one plan etc). I've found I can get reasonably detailed with it from layout perspective but I doubt it would be good enough for a drawings for a building permit (although I'm not certain of this). As a graphic designer you'll have an affinity for graphics software. If you want to be able to draw more detailed drawings Id take the time to learn Sketchup. I know some architects use this as their software of choice. I'm definitely with you @Jason Carter - the only way to really control your budget is to plan ahead and choose and price everything that you can think of before you break ground. Otherwise you're in a situation where you have to make quick compromises during the build which leads to mistakes etc. In my work we use requirements tracking tools. I think it would be really helpful to communicate to the contractors exactly what is going to go on in the room - why the extra outlets are there and in the position they're in. That way they have a deeper understanding of why the specs are the way they are and they don't make decisions that detract from the design - they might even come up with suggestions that support the ideas behind the designs.

What to do with a small back of the house room?
Q

This is the room... Believe me this is an old house and the refurb is on the way so as they say" look past what's there now" it's connected to a corridor and in front of it is the front if the house with porch and large windows. I would love to make this a front to back look but it is below a road at the back and just looks into a yard! The views are magnificent at the front as we over look the sea ! I'm so stool on ideas. To the right is the bathroom to the left we are building a utility room... My initial thoughts were that I would like it to be an extension of the hall.. Help!
