An Industrial Grid for Modern Living
An Industrial Grid for Modern Living
Within a nineteenth-century Manchester cotton mill, exposed brick, cast-iron columns and tall factory windows set the scale and rhythm of the interior, shaping how the new home is organised.
Living, dining and cooking unfold through the open plan, with quieter spaces for rest and work. Oxblood upholstery, walnut joinery and brushed steel create a counterpoint to the original brick and iron.

The original structural grid guides furniture and circulation, giving each activity a clear place without fragmenting the mill’s open volume.
A glazed workspace allows concentration without blocking daylight. Contemporary details sit alongside the original industrial fabric.
