Melange Maisonette by Amos Goldreich Architecture is a listed Chelsea renovation where storage, joinery and material contrast do the heavy lifting.
The project is useful because it shows how a residential interior can feel richer without becoming cluttered. The detail is practical, but the material choices give the home its character.
Project gallery
The gallery uses horizontal supporting interior images, avoiding a repeat of the page’s visible hero image.
Project overview
The renovation refreshed the living room, bedrooms and bathrooms of a listed maisonette in Chelsea, West London. Bespoke joinery was used to hide clutter, improve daily use and give each space a more coherent design language.
The brief combined industrial references, marble and Asian woodwork. Amos Goldreich Architecture tied those ideas together through texture, tone and carefully controlled detailing.
What makes the project work
- The living room media wall acts as storage, fireplace surround, shelving and visual centrepiece.
- Slatted timber wardrobes bring warmth and craft into the bedroom.
- Travertine, micro cement and dark platinum finishes give the bathrooms a consistent material palette.
- Terrazzo and neutral bathroom surfaces create contrast without visual noise.
Portfolio lesson
Residential projects can be excellent portfolio evidence when they show before-and-after thinking, constraints, joinery logic and the relationship between function and material choice.
Showcase a residential refurbishment
Architecture Social can feature residential projects when the page explains the design decisions behind the final images.
- Show the practical problem the project solved.
- Explain the material palette and joinery decisions.
- Use details to prove the quality of the design.
- Credit the practice, collaborators and photographer clearly.
Architecture Social view
Stephen’s recruiter view is that interiors and residential refurbishments are strongest when they reveal judgement. A good portfolio should show why each detail exists, not only that the finished space looks polished.
