Site Specific: Lubetkin Apartment

Studio naama - London, 2022

SN Complete refurbishment of an apartment in Berthold Lubetkin’s now Grade II listed Sivill House, on Columbia Road in East London. Using timber throughout, stripping back areas to reveal the original concrete beams, punching through the bedroom and living room partition wall, and the inclusion of metal structures that link back to the building’s common areas, the apartment is imbued with tactility, colour and light.
