Attractive living as an architectural experiment: a 136-year-old water tower, a listed building with a spectacular 360-degree panorama view over the City of London. The task, to transform it into a superior residence, initially seemed an absolute impossibility. But when the owners came across architect Mike Collier, they had found a partner who was to make the impossible possible. The tower, which had been empty for decades, underwent radical renovation work and was extended by a four-storey cube containing kitchen, dining and living room - connected by glazed tunnels and a lift shaft. The kitchen, realised by Enclosure Interiors in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, with furniture from LEICHT is the very heart of living in this new building. Shiny white matt-lacquered kitchen fronts (AVANCE-LR), tone-on-tone with the worktops, reflect the light in the room and thus create expanse and openness. The surface of the handle-less kitchen fronts has a horizontal relief embossing; depending on the light incidence, this results in a vitally structured surface. The free-standing preparation isle with its vertical side panels with a seamlessly integrated sink represents the transition between kitchen and living room. The fronts of the floor units facing the dining table were extended to the floor to do away with the plinth typical of most kitchens. Ceiling-high tall units on the wall provide plenty of storage space; the electrical appliances are integrated here invisible to the eye. Floor units on a high plinth which thus appear to be floating form the actual cooking centre within the kitchen, attached to the wall. A range of handle-less wall units concludes the glazed niche at the top. LEICHT international: “Architecture and kitchen” in the centre of London. www.LeichtUSA.com

Step in this dining room, and your guests can’t help but feel supremely inspired. This space exudes an air of tranquility. The metallic shimmer walls play off the zebra rug and pop-color chairs. Sleek silhouette statues give a feel of ancient regality while the entire space is tied to earth with art by God: an elephant ear selenite rock. Organic, sleek and shimmer greet you and your guests, telling you: yes, this is life. MaRae Simone Interiors, Marc Mauldin photography

The large fireplace inlay is perfect for the flat screen TV and sound bar, keeping the profile streamlined. A colorful water vapor mist feature gives off the warm glow of a real fireplace without the heat. The selenite crystal logs provide a touch of alluring drama when lit. A sleek bench allows for additional seating when entertaining and doubles as a surface for pillows, baskets or other decorative items. Photo: Zeke Ruelas
