When a client was looking to incorporate an open, light-filled atmosphere into their central London townhouse, they turned to local firm Andy Martin Architecture to help reimagine the space.

To deliver the transformation the owners were seeking, the team gutted the five-story property, and added a new ground floor made entirely of glass footpath paving lights—which are common on London commercial streets—to allow an abundance of natural light to enter the space.
