Black brick clad modern mews house and gallery in North London

The ground floor contains an open plan gallery arranged around an internal courtyard, that is cut into the brick box.

Black-grey linear brickwork is exposed in the interior in contrast to the white interior spaces.

The stairs divided the ground floor paces and sit in a slot between the first floor rooms, one of which is a suspended box that stands behind the double-height glazed screen of the courtyard.
