This masterfully executed three-bedroom home is named The house at Seam, the centerpiece of a newly created development and represents a rare balance of sustainable construction and forward-thinking design. Located in the St Mark’s Conservation Area, entry is via a discreet path beside the church, offering a sense of calm and seclusion in the centre of Dalston. Behind a gate, the front courtyard is one of three outdoor spaces, allowing for planting and additional privacy.

The house is anchored by a lateral living plan, brilliantly arranged for contemporary life and echoing the ease of a mid-century layout. Unfolding across 170 sq m, the design is underpinned by an eco-conscious approach. Porotherm clay blocks, chosen for their exceptional thermal performance and breathability, were used throughout the construction. A sunken living area creates a relaxed, cocooning atmosphere, while overhead glazing and bi-fold doors opening to a generous courtyard bathe the interior with natural light. A spacious and sociable dining table sits in the heart of the home and draws the eye towards the kitchen.

Artform’s interior design partners Scenesmith have worked in collaboration with Leicht, a carbon-neutral manufacturer, on the colourful ‘Kyoto’ kitchen, which references Japanese minimalism and imbues the space with warmth and quality. The striking kitchen island is clad in quarry tiles and topped with chestnut-flecked terrazzo. Integrated Siemens appliances are paired with a brass Quooker hot tap. A separate utility room is neatly tucked away, alongside additional storage for coats and bags.

To the front of the plan is a generous principal bedroom with a large walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. Double doors open onto a private courtyard – the perfect spot for morning coffee. There are two further bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, along with a bathroom and separate WC. The finish throughout is immaculate, reflecting the commitment to craftsmanship and beauty that Artform are known for.

The house at Seam is in the final stages of completion, which is why we’ve used these beautiful illustrations to show how the finished home will look. If you’d like to book a visit, there will be an open house on the 18th July.
