Quinn Architects have recently completed the renovation of an eleventh floor, four-bedroom apartment in a Barbican tower.
For the project, the team rented a workshop in Camberwell in which to design, prototype and manufacture every detail in the apartment over nine months.
Research into the estate was conducted over a twelve year period, and this played a large influence over the design.
