01 · Background

The starting point.

A reversible home and project gallery within a former print room, keeping the warehouse legible at every scale.

02 · Constraint

What could
not be ignored.

Listed brick piers could not be cut, daylight was harsh and the client needed exhibitions to coexist with ordinary family routines.

Rather than treating those limits as problems to hide, the design uses them to set orientation, section and construction rhythm.

Gallery Loft spatial and material detail

03 · Spatial response

The organising
move.

Four suspended white planes define rooms without touching the historic shell. Linen curtains shift between open gallery and intimate home.

04 · Result

How the space
now works.

Installations change without building waste. Roof light washes the original fabric while soft partitions tune privacy and acoustics.

Material register

Mineral paint · linen · polished concrete
