This bright one-bedroom apartment is situated in Newbery House on the leafy tree-lined Northampton Street in the heart of Canonbury. Unfolding across the ground floor of the building, the apartment has been subject to a sensitive yet comprehensive remodelling and refurbishment by award-winning architecture firm Russian For Fish. A clean and neutral colour scheme has been employed to maximise the exceptional quality of light drawn in from large windows. This is balanced by a soft material palette of raw plaster and bleached wood that adds warmth and texture. There is a wonderfully secluded private terrace at the back of the apartment, which opens, in turn, onto large and verdant communal gardens.
