Pump up the minimalism .
8-Apr-1999
A brave Cardiff client has resisted the invasion of themed pubs by commissioning architect Austin-Smith: Lord to design a very different type of bar and restaurant in the city centre. Scott's, at 39 Windsor Place, has a sophisticated image more in keeping with Cardiff's growing importance as a prime European location than are the pseudo-Celtic boozers currently mushrooming around the globe. -
Orange tint to bespoke loft living
25-Mar-1999
Project Orange has fitted out a 240m2 apartment in New Inn Square, Shoreditch, for a client who wanted a series of generous spaces to reflect his interests in cooking, dj-ing, working out and sleeping. The apartment is on the basement and ground floor of New Inn Square, a solid late-nineteenth- century building with large steel windows, large spans and high ceilings, which has been developed into shell and core lofts. -

Breaking the Victorian mould
22-Oct-1998
It is unusual to go next door in a terrace and find that the new house seems to be twice as spacious as the old, yet this is what The Pike Practice has achieved in a new-build end-of-terrace house in Wandsworth, South London. Tom Pike was keen to come up with a new format for living in a standard Victorian terrace. 'We did as daring a scheme as we thought we could get away with, ' he says. -
