Minimalist apartments built on triangular plot in London
Wright Office completes two-apartment project in Peckham using textured materials
1Unlocking triangular potential
Wright Office transformed a 130 sqm triangular plot in Peckham into two two-bedroom apartments. The narrow frontage harmonizes with neighboring buildings while expanding to 13 meters at the rear to create private garden spaces.
2Thoughtful material selection
The project features textured materials like rough bricks and lime-washed plaster. Dark front facades respect neighboring buildings, while large rear windows and light colors create an airy atmosphere facing the gardens.
3Journey of discovery
The design guides visitors from narrow, dark entryways into expansive living areas, offering a spatial exploration experience. This approach creatively utilizes the constraints of the triangular site.
4Minimalist interiors
Apartments feature timber floors, white kitchen-bathroom fittings, and lime-washed walls for minimalist aesthetics. The exterior brick material is reintroduced indoors for contrast.
5Contextual sensitivity
The studio respected the street's character between 1950s and 1970s buildings while employing contemporary design. The goal was creating 'distinctive yet quiet' architecture.
6Urban infill exemplar
Radnor Road demonstrates efficient use of small urban plots in dense London. The architects' dual role as developers ensured complete design control over this compact project.
