Take a tour around a beautiful London mews house
Living room
Originally the top floor of the mews, this living room had just one window. To introduce more light and improve ventilation, the owners created a double-height space and inserted a south-facing electronic window above.
Get the look: The purple cushions are from Josephine Home and the electronically controlled window (not seen) is from Glazing Innovations.
