MODERN ELEGANCE
NICK AND ALISHA HAVE TEAMED TIMELESS CABINETRY WITH
CONTEMPORARY COOL IN THEIR LONDON HOME
After working on a variety of conversions and refurbishments for clients,
architect Nick Horvath was itching to work on a project of his own. So when
he and his wife, Alisha Bignell, a customer care manager, stumbled across a
rather battered Victorian flat above an old shop in south west London, they
saw something that other buyers probably didn’t – an opportunity to create
two well-proportioned homes. “It was perfect, in a great location close
to the Tube, with an untouched loft space with a 3-metre floor to ceiling
height,” recalls Nick. “I could see immediately that it had great potential.”
