Positioned on a no-through road in Clapton is this contemporary one-bedroom detached house, designed by architecture practice OMDA. Built in 2015, the architects have used a considered palette of materials that maximise space and light throughout. Through glazed sliding doors, an east-facing cantilevered balcony leads from the first-floor living spaces, creating a wonderful sense of extension to the internal plan. The current owners have added bespoke joinery by Lozi on the upper floor, which cleverly reconfigures the open-plan kitchen and dining area while adding an abundance of storage space.
