Internal refurbishment of 4th floor flat R

The client asked JaK Studio to refurbish a rental property that he owns on Portland Place in central London, to improve its layout and the quality of its accommodation, while also upgrading the heating, cooling and the acoustic properties of the flat.

The first step in this project was to ensure a high level of acoustic insulation from and towards the surrounding appartments, which has been achieved by the installation of both acoustic floors and ceilings.

Secondly, a comprehensive mechanical & electrical scheme has been devised to ensure a high quality of accommodation and the future proofing of the flat. This includes a AC system with MVHR, an Imist system, underfloor heating, megaflo boiler, Data cabling and built-in speakers.

Finally the internal finishes and detailing boast a contemporary design taking inspiration from the art deco style, giving the flat a sense of effortless luxury.

The new scheme retains a classic layout with an entrance lobby and a strict separation between day/public and night/private spaces. At the same time the layout was reorganized in a more efficient way by moving the kitchen next to the living room so as to form a large open space with a double aspect. A subtly demarcated corridor leads to the master ensuite, a family bathroom and a 2 bedrooms.
