Penthouse in Clerkenwell

The elliptical upper floor of this luxurious 290 m² duplex penthouse is a prominent local landmark, commanding spectacular panoramic city views to St Paul’s.

A double-height marble-plaster wall rises into a glazed elliptical drum from the entry floor below; tracing the perimeter in a gentle curve and providing a degree of unifying enclosure.

An elegant stair, cantilevered from the wall, links the two levels of open plan living space and provides a central focus for the plan - visible from the moment of arrival, as a destination at the end of the long entry gallery.
