Fawe St II by Adam Khan Architects
3 bedrooms; £1.55m via The Modern House
The Spratt’s dog biscuit factory was among the first major warehouse conversions in the city, and this loft has been recently reconfigured by Adam Khan Architects so it’s perfectly proportioned for work/life balance. The large living, kitchen and dining area is framed by the original factory window – note how it stretches up to the first floor, drawing natural light deep into the interior. Khan also added a large hatch up on the first floor, overlooking the communal spaces below.
