“Sound and Vision” is a new apartment in Aldgate, London, recently completed by Studio Daniel Hopwood, an interior design practice founded by Daniel Hopwood in 1993.
From the architect: When a cosmopolitan, urbane couple whose second passion is London, decide to buy a new apartment, what else would they choose but one in a new high rise building with 360 degree views of London?
It occupies an entire floor, enabling them not only to live their lives comfortably, but also to have an opportunity to pursue their individual interests. Each has a room that they can call their own. His is dedicated to sound in its most sumptuous form, music. He required ample storage for his guitar and record collection, as well as an opportunity to show off some of them. He also wanted a space where he could happily strum away, whilst gazing out to the sunset.
She too has a passion, a visual one; fashion. For her, we created a room where she could hang out with the girls, try on new things and not have to rush too quickly to get ready for an evening out.
