There’s an intriguing exploration of materials behind a domestic facade in a north London Victorian street. On entering, a staircase, purpose made from some 2000 pieces of plywood, greets the visitor and exemplifies the deft, nimble thinking that governs this project.
Renovation of all the internal spaces, an extension and balconies show that innovative design can also be good value for money. Hidden storage is secreted around the house. Under the eaves is Marie’s wardrobe of the project title – with, naturally, a space for every shoe.
