Visual concepts

_{Previously, the shared meter cupboard was screened with crude fencing materials. Installing white-painted hit & miss battens knocks it back and lightens the space up}

_{Built in seating with low-maintenance architectural planting creates a lovely nook for entertaining}

_{The clients were having a fire escape installed to give them direct access to the courtyard from their apartment, providing a great opportunity for sheltered seating}

Proposed view from below the fire escape. Mirrors help break the monotony of the brickwork and bring light and reflection to the space
