This private apartment in the heart of York has been designed as a refined, gallery-like residence for avid art collectors. Responding to its exceptional setting, the scheme frames uninterrupted views across the city and towards York Minster, integrating the historic skyline into the interior experience.

Influenced by Japanese design principles, the space balances calm restraint with rich materiality. Bespoke timber joinery, layered screening, and a carefully considered lighting scheme enhance texture and highlight the clients’ collection. The result is a timeless and immersive interior where art, architecture, and context exist in harmony.
