Houzz Tour: Industrial Style and Light in a London Apartment (9 photos)

Another key request was to somehow bring in ash wood from the owner’s family farm in Somerset, southwest England. Cambie used that wood for the custom kitchen furniture.

The kitchen design is simple and raw. “It’s meant to look unfussy,” Cambie says. “And I wanted to keep it flexible, so the island can actually be repositioned to change the layout entirely.” She also stripped back the walls and repointed the brickwork.

A steel support beam was put in when the wall was knocked down, and Cambie decided to leave it exposed to emphasize the loft vibe. She also selected galvanized boxes and conduits for the light switches to support the industrial feel.

The designer installed built-in speakers, and the owner added a projector screen that can be rolled down in front of the window’s blackout blind for viewing in the living area.
