Dark tones set the keynote of this flat: matt black kitchen cabinetry, oak cladding and taupe cabinet fronts. Wood and concealed lighting sit alongside the dark surfaces, so the rooms show a different face by day and by evening.

A matt black island and base units, with oak wall units above.
01 / The concept
A dark base, warm wood, concealed light.
The main colours of the flat are matt black, oak, taupe and warm grey. Next to the dark surfaces, the oak cladding and the concealed lighting bring in the warm tones, and a light sand colour appears in the bathroom.
What ties the flat together
Matt black
The kitchen base units, the island and the dining table are matt black.
Oak
Oak covers the kitchen wall units, the column, the living room TV wall and the open shelves of the wardrobe.
Concealed light
Light runs under the wall units, inside the wine wall, under the TV unit and in the bedroom wall niche.
02 / Kitchen and dining
A black island, oak wall units.
The kitchen shares one open space with the living room and the dining area. The base units and the island are matt black, the wall units are oak and the worktop has a concrete effect.
Behind the island stands a black dining table with dark upholstered chairs, next to an oak slatted wall.

A built-in wine wall stands beside the oak-clad column, with interior lighting picking out the bottles. The island and the dining table sit in front of it.

Day and eveningThe same view in daylight and with the evening lighting: in the evening the concealed strip above the worktop and the wine wall are lit.
03 / Living room
An oak slatted wall behind the TV.
The living room opens from the kitchen island, with a balcony door at the far end. Oak slat cladding covers the wall behind the TV, with a light floating TV unit in front of it.
From the kitchen island to the living room in one open space.
One space, no wall.
There is no wall between the kitchen and the living room: the island and the slatted walls divide the two areas.

04 / Bedroom and wardrobe
An upholstered bed, a taupe wardrobe.
The bedroom has a grey upholstered bed with a tall quilted headboard and an illuminated wall niche beside it. The fronts of the cabinets and the dressing corridor are taupe, with black handles.

05 / Bathroom and study
Sand and oak in the bathroom.
The bathroom is tiled in a sand colour. Above the floating vanity unit is an LED-framed mirror, beside it an open shelf niche and above it an oak cabinet; the WC is wall-hung.

Both the vanity unit and the wall cabinet float, so the floor stays clear. Light runs inside the mirror frame.
