Although there are some getaways in every city, large populations and crowded housing make the advent of actually having open space in your abode a rare luxury. But designers like Thomas Griem who turned this once regular three bedroom penthouse into a wonderous open space home is showing that a lot can be done with a little.
Using stylish and sturdy oak beams, this penthouse looks almost as if Griem uprooted the innards of a country farmhouse and brought them to London. With lots of oak decorations and fixtures to match, Thomas Griem's penthouse is truly a rustic city getaway.
