clean and serene CLEVER PLANNING ENSURES A SPA-LIKE FEEL IN AN AWKWARD SPACE

when you’re dealing with unusual architecture, it’s important to plot out every millimetre. The sale particulars for Jessica Abiagom-page’s home describe this space as storage, but actually it was a generous 6.5x2.4m room, albeit windowless. Alongside the steeply pitched roof , the space was hindered by a chimney breast, making the footprint feel even narrower. ‘We left a small section of the chimney breast, supported by steels, which shows how minor structural alterations can have a huge impact,’ Jessica says. ‘We could accommodate everything on our wish list, including twin showers and basins, along with a more spacious layout.’

Adding outsized skylights draws the eye up and made a feature of the high-pitched ceiling. Reducing the palette to just a few finishes served to blur out some of the angles and distract from the fact that the ceiling beams are not straight.
