In the case of the Ivy Lane residence, the al fresco lifestyle defines the design, with a sun-drenched private courtyard and swimming pool demanding regular outdoor entertainment. By turning its back to the street and welcoming northern views, this courtyard-centred home invites guests to experience an exciting new version of its physical location. A social lifestyle is also reflected through the interior living spaces, led by the sunken lounge, complete with polished concrete finishes and custom-designed seating. The kitchen, additional living areas and bedroom wings then open onto the central courtyard space, completing a sanctuary of sheltered, social living.

“The kitchen was slightly too small to allow a typical kitchen island with a worktop run on one side and a storage run on the other” says Griem. “We worked closely with Bulthaup who created a bespoke slim 600mm wide bar with a solid walnut top which also houses a microwave and storage at one end with a slender column support at the other, The room feels light and spacious because we left the space under the top empty and stopped before the wall so no-one can walk around the island completely. I was very pleased how Bulthaup integrated a 430mm wine fridge at the end of the storage run”. Photography: Philip Vile
