44 St Mark’s Rise, Dalston E8 2NL – Dalston
Mark's Rise, away from the hustle and bustle of Dalston. Renovated 3 apartments in a period building.
Retained the existing historic features in the apartments while bringing the building up to modern building codes. A new roof was installed, insulation was added and wooden casement windows were replaced with similar ones (only now they are double glazed and energy efficient).
After learning about the building's history and its connection to east London's garment industry, Scenesmith's designers threaded an industrial thread through all the interior concepts. The plywood kitchens, handcrafted by local company Lozi, feature solid walnut handles and rich burgundy-colored countertops from Fenix. The bathrooms are edged with rows of shimmering matchstick tile with ceramic tape that mimics the weave of fabric threads (paired with beautiful terrazzo). The second-floor apartments revealed roof beams and created oversized ceilings 3.6 meters high.
For those who love what Artform does and have a taste for period properties, St Mark's Rise apartments are a great place to start.

Choosing a floor plan might be tricky, but it shouldn't be so. See 3 quick tips below to pick only the right layout for your new home.
Tip 1 — Measure it all
You might already know your desired square footage when choosing a new home. Generally, more bedrooms mean more space, which also drives up the prices.
However, modern developers offer smart floor plans so you can make better use of the space. For instance, a studio with an open floor plan can be much more efficient and affordable than a typical 1-bedroom apartment with a traditional floor plan.
Tip 2 – Go with the flow
Once you have picked one or several layouts, you need to imagine living in the space. Visualise daily activities like laundry or cooking: is it convenient? Do you have enough space?
Online interior design apps that offer 3D visualisation (many of them are free) are time-savers here. Just download the desired floor plan from 1newhomes, upload it to the website you chose, and get a 3D render to visualise living in your new home.
Tip 3 — Do not neglect flexible space
The current lifestyle dictates its own rules. That’s why you need to consider flexible space in your perfect floor plan to have room for a home office or a gym. In addition, be sure to check that your new flat has a lot of natural light. The importance of the latter goes without saying.
A good floor plan means having all you need in a smartly designed space. We are sure our quick tips help you pick only the perfect layout for your new home.
