Rooftop House, London

Private Residence, London.

 

Sitting in the heart of London, Rooftop House has flipped the traditional home arrangement by locating the family kitchen at the top of the home to take advantage of the spectacular views towards the city. A double height void is created between the kitchen and the living room below to scoop natural daylight down into the space.

 

A double tiered roof terrace is created to maximise the external space, and is linked by an internal split staircase integrated into the kitchen joinery. A frameless glass box projects into the lower terrace, forming a dining seat and drawing in more natural light. 

 

With bespoke joinery and interior detailing throughout, every aspect of the home was carefully considered to stitch the contemporary roof terrace and kitchen spaces seamlessly into the Victorian aesthetic of the original home, aided by the introduction of careful brass and oak detailing to the stair.  

 

Fieldwork provided a full design service from concept to completion to deliver architectural design, bespoke joinery and detail interiors.
