About this project

Another exciting transformation has taken place in the heart of West London. It features our very own Antique Manoir Oak parquet flooring, reclaimed from beams over 200 years old. Sourced from ancient stables, cottages, and storehouses around the Mediterranean, each piece tells its own story. The meticulous kiln drying, cutting, sanding, and hand-grading process ensures that every plank retains its historical charm and character.⁠

Studio Tashima has masterfully woven history into a contemporary design. The strategic placement of a large mirror at the centre of the triangular space enhances the sense of openness, offering dynamic reflections of the Manoir Oak herringbone pattern. This clever addition creates captivating views as one moves through the kitchen, hallway, and living room, showcasing the thoughtful and creative design decisions that have transformed this space into a living, breathing tapestry of stories and elegance.⁠
