Studio Est Redesigns a Battersea Power Station Apartment
Amy Duong — August 20, 2024 — Art & Design
London interiors design firm Studio Est showcases its latest project which references industrial heritage at the Battersea Power Station. The apartment in South London was once an empty shell and now it reflects a space that is true to the owner's personal style and the setting that aligns with the art deco power station.
Studio Est informs the space with a subtle neutral palette and the open-plan space creates a consistent background for various furniture and artwork. The founder of Studio Est, Louise East speaks to Dezeen about the new redesign project, noting "We wanted to keep it simple but introduce subtle brutalist elements that evoke the building's history. These are complemented by softer textures that add a more feminine touch."
