Award RIBA London Award 2023

Located within an imposing late Victorian mansion, in the Swiss Cottage area of London, is a 29sqm micro-apartment. This project presents an affordable approach to urban living where space is at a premium. The architect, Mike Shaw of Proctor & Shaw, has cleverly manipulated volume to turn what was a tiny, dark, one-bedroom flat into a spacious, light-filled home, with carefully integrated storage.
