On the first floor , two receptions rooms provide an elegance and formality , away from the more practical living floors . A sanctuary from daily life with space to move , built-in joinery by the studio easily keeps the space clear and minimal . Here , softer , and warmer earthier tones are mixed into the grey , neutral palette providing a lighter , more inviting , yet elegant setting . A WC and half landing reading nook are also part of the floor ’ s layout .
We believe that in the practical lies beauty and in creating an ease of movement and use through a home we can transcend fashion and create for the long-term .
The master suite on the second floor encompasses true luxury with a generous bedroom and ensuite . Featuring a custom made , built-in headboard and bedside tables design by the studio , the contemporary space appears framed by the mixed materials . Bespoke fabric lined wall-to-wall wardrobes trimmed with bronze sprayed metal and bespoke handles designed by TR Studio add texture and interest . A large marble clad master ensuite is connected by a spacesaving sliding crittal-style glazed door . Here , double vanity units and a large bath with clean , sharp angles add an ultra-modern and minimalist edge .
Accommodating the client ’ s need for a his and her study , TR Studio made the most of the half landing closet wings on the first and second floors to create work from home sanctuaries , one being more formal and functional home office , the other a casual retreat with day bed .
A family bathroom with sky light completes the third floor , alongside two children ’ s bedrooms and half landing reading nook . Following the crisp and clean aesthetic favoured by the client ; slim linear tiles , terrazzo and matt black fittings decorate the functional bathroom space . Like the rest of the property , the children ’ s bedrooms feature bespoke joinery to accommodate their growing and changing needs .
First and foremost , NCH house is a family home , but it also successfully achieves the elegant , timeless , and luxurious ambience requested by the client , providing a new , fresh , modern way of living to a home the client had lived in for several years . Respecting the buildings original style , TR Studio have created an enhanced way of life for the client and their young family through their interior architecture by utilising natural light , bespoke joinery and clever detailing , a signature of the studio which is at play throughout . Combined with beautifully crafted furniture and soft furnishings in a liveable palette of neutral tones and rich textures , selected by interior designer Riley Brooks , NCH House is a sophisticated example of modern , city living .
Commenting on the project , founder and lead architect Tom Rutt comments : ‘ Establishing a close working relationship with our Client was absolutely key to getting the most out of this , and every design project we undertake . Enjoying family life and the ability to retreat to a sanctuary within city life was of the utmost importance to them and something that remained consistent in our approach .
For this project , a monochrome palette is dominant throughout , and this married our Client ’ s sophistication along with a clear identity that carried through the home . Subtle bronze work and texture from layered materials in the soft furnishings added the elegance and luxury .
Our approach echoes a desire we have as a studio to design for the way people live . We believe that in the practical lies beauty and in creating an ease of movement and use through a home we can transcend fashion and create for the long-term .’
