Located off Nicholson Street, this warehouse conversion transforms a former shoe factory into a contemporary living environment.

A long entry leads to a double-height space, with a custom stair connecting all three levels. Original features, like steel windows, brickwork and barn doors, are preserved as key stories of the design.

The home is spread across three levels; the ground floor consisting of a gallery and guest spaces, the first floor made up of the kitchen, living, dining, with an outdoor terrace and the second floor hosting private sleeping areas.

The interior keeps the building’s industrial character with exposed timber trusses, burnished oak joinery, and Verde granite. The kitchen is designed as a freestanding object, with a concealed butler’s pantry supporting the home’s focus on hosting.

Materials and textures are carefully chosen, with narrow oak floors, lit shelving, and stone islands anchoring the main living areas. The terrace is framed in steel, with limestone cobblestone paving and a retractable pergola.​ Above, the master suite offers a simple, quiet retreat.

The house is a repository of collected works, a home for ceramics and art. Its beauty lies in the fundamental elements: the walls, the floors, the ceilings, and the use of glass. Our focus was on crafting these components, ensuring the space remains stripped back yet beautiful.

This project reimagines an industrial structure, weaving its historic character into an expression of living today.
