A woman turned an abandoned public toilet into a chic house
Laura Clark is an architect, she lives in England. In 2005, Laura graduated from the School of Arts in Glasgow, and then moved to work in London. One day, walking around the city, a woman accidentally came across an old and abandoned public toilet. Of course, not everyone is impressed with the room of this format, but ideas and options began to appear in Laura’s head, what can be made of all this.
Today we will tell you about a very purposeful girl who did just incredible things and believed in her business, while others thought she was crazy.
She bought the room. Its main feature was that it was built back in 1929, but ceased to function in 1980.
No one entered these places for 30 years, and it was visible to the naked eye: everywhere garbage, ruins and walls cracking at the seams.
At first, Laura wanted to turn this room into some small cinema or bar, but even in three years she could not get permission for it. She decided to make an apartment out of an unsightly room. The apartment of your dreams.
She did most of the work herself: demolition of partitions, construction of new ones, installation of electrical wiring, painting of walls, etc.
The room was bought by her in 2011, work was carried out for five long years, and in 2016 the dream became a reality.
And this is the kitchen.
Can you believe that there used to be a public toilet here? This is the living room!
The bedroom is good, you can’t argue.
Bathroom.
The entrance to Laura’s new apartment looks pretty good. Neat, modern, and even in the spirit of the surrounding architecture. You can’t guess right away that this door leads to someone’s home.
Words are unnecessary, the girl really worked hard, her creation, of course, will not appeal to everyone, but for her it is a dream home!
