Thomson Brothers recently completed the stunning transformation of this one-bedroom penthouse within the iconic Barbican Estate. From its fumed oak flooring to the vibrant orange stairwell accent wall, every detail of this refurbishment exudes sophistication and contemporary flair. 

Upon entering the penthouse, one is immediately embraced by the inviting ambiance created by the fumed oak flooring, which flows seamlessly throughout the space.This flooring option not only imbues the interior with a sense of warmth and richness, but also stands as a testament to its durability and timeless charm.

The kitchen has been reimagined with Thomson Brothers’ renowned meticulous attention to detail. The terrazzo tiled floor adds texture and visual interest, while the grey Himacs work surface exudes modern elegance. Oak-faced ply bespoke under-counter bookshelves and over-counter cabinets provide ample storage space, blending functionality with bespoke craftsmanship.One of the standout features of the kitchen is the reeded glass sliding upper cabinet doors, adding a subtle yet distinctive touch to the design. These doors not only offer a glimpse into the contents within, but also give the space with an air of sophistication.

The refurbished original spiral staircase, with surrounding walls painted in vibrant orange, serves as a striking focal point that connects the ground floor to the top floor with style. This bold choice of colour adds vibrancy and personality to the space, working beautifully with the owners’ eclectic array of captivating pieces.

The bathroom refurbishment features stunning terrazzo wall tiles, elegantly contrasting with white porcelain tiles, creating a harmonious blend of sophistication and modernity.

Thomson Brothers designed and installed an impressive mezzanine within the vaulted ceiling space. The new solid Sapele stair treads, which were meticulously French polished to match the original Barbican window frames, along with the addition of a bespoke glass balustrade and continuous LED strip lighting subtly fitted at the side of the stairs, combine in elevating the staircase to a work of art. The addition of this new, bespoke staircase perfectly integrates to maintain the architectural heritage of the building. The inclusion of bespoke storage units under the stairs maximizes the space efficiency, while maintaining the sleek aesthetic of the room.

The refurbishment of this beautiful Barbican penthouse showcases the fusion of stylish design and timeless, sophisticated elegance. From the exquisite fumed oak flooring to the vibrant orange accents and bespoke craftsmanship, every element has been thoughtfully curated to create a space that is both luxurious and inviting. This penthouse stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the Barbican’s architectural legacy while embracing the demands of modern urban living.
