BAUMAN LOFT An excellent example of the red brick industrial architecture of the early 20th century

This project by NefaArchitects is located in a historical building of a tea sorting facility, freshly repurposed as a residential cluster. The building was designed in the early 20th century (before1917) and is an excellent example of the red brick industrial architecture of that era. For us, this job was particularly appealing because of the necessity to fit all the essentials of an apartment in such a compact cubicle space. The solution was to introduce levels, using ceilings height (4,3m); Entrance, sofa & kitchen area are located on the bottom level; the Second level is raised to the height of the windowsill, and used for the bedroom compartment; the Third level is bathroom and wardrobe. 26 - www.refurbandrestore.co.uk
