Leading upstairs , TR Studio ’ s attention to detail can be seen in the sophisticated wooden staircase with hardwood floor and contrasted by a sleek white and mahogany banister . Discreet stairwell lighting was set into cool , taupe toned walls .
Featuring period detailing , the front of the property on the upper ground floor level encompasses an entrance hall leading to a main reception room which provides a tranquil retreat away from the more practical lower living floor . In the main reception space , the double height library continues providing a reading nook for the client whilst showcasing a classic Arne Jacobsen leather egg chair and Warhol canvas . Here the walk on glass floor adds a sense of modernity in contrast to the traditional architectural detailing of the 1830s period property . As with the lower layout , the studio chose to install sliding glazed doors to allow for a separate or open living room . The studio incorporated soft curves to cleverly maximise space and provide for a TV and a bespoke built-in storage unit designed by the studio in a bold teal hue .
At the rear , on a half landing leading on to a guest WC , TR Studio once again installed Crittal style glazing and sliding doors , maximising the use of unused space at the rear of the property to create a multi-purpose cloakroom and storage space .
