This striking maisonette apartment in Fulham was reimagined from the ground up by interior and architectural design studio, Pfeiffer Design
The original layout for this Fulham maisonette lacked both flow and functionality. The design team at Pfeiffer Design reconfigured the interior to optimise light, space and everyday living, as well as adding a new upper floor leading to a hidden rooftop terrace – a rare find in the heart of the city
A clear representation of how bespoke design works best in tight spaces, the team centred on intelligent spatial planning by moving the staircase, streamlining each room and creating valuable square footage throughout. The result is a home that is perfectly suited to the needs of the homeowner, with quality craftsmanship and premium materials at the forefront
A versatile and layered space, the living area balances openness with moments of retreat. A bespoke sliding barn door between the living area and the kitchen offers the homeowner the flexibility to connect the spaces for entertaining or close them off for a more intimate setting. A custom-made media unit provides generous storage and the dining area is thoughtfully positioned within the large bay window to make the most of the light
Tucked quietly off the main living space, a compact home office offers a practical workspace with plenty of bespoke storage and natural light. Throughout, the warm wood tones of the flooring and kitchen are echoed in the media and office areas to ensure visual continuity and softness – while tailored window treatments introduce an additional layer of softness
The two bedrooms are calm sanctuaries, united by a shared palette of soft neutrals warmed with subtle undertones of cream and greige. Gentle accents of pink and blue are layered through colourful accessories and soft furnishings, while bespoke wardrobe storage in each bedroom provides generous, tailored space for clothing – ensuring elegant and uncluttered living. In the main bedroom, the team transformed a small corner into a dedicated vanity area, complete with a floating tabletop and stool
The bathrooms combine a neutral palette with rich, statement detailing. Soft whites and layered stone surfaces with dramatic veining form a timeless backdrop, complemented with fluted elements across both wall tiles, a statement basin and a sculptural bath. Dark bronze and matt black finishes give a contemporary edge to the interiors
The defining feature of this project is the addition of the private rooftop terrace which sits above the London skyline. After the challenging task of gaining planning permission, the creation of this new upper floor included an automated roof hatch accessed via a newly stacked staircase which connects the outdoor to the indoor. Combining timber decking, a comfortable lounge area and lush greenery, the result is a versatile and generous space for hosting all year round
Working with a trusted team of architects, structural engineers, contractors, specialist trades and experts in bespoke joinery and upholstery, Pfeiffer Design managed the entire project from planning to execution
