About this location

A small bright, architecturally designed 1-bedroom apartment in the heart of Balham. Blending Scandi- minimalism with Mid-Century Modern styling.

Room breakdown

Bathroom, Open plan kitchen, living & dining room, Bedroom (King size bed, desk)

Key Features for Production:

- The Kitchen: a small contemporary muted-green cabinetry with a dramatic, full-height Terrazzo splashback and countertops. High-end Smeg appliances and open shelving with stylized props make this an ideal backdrop for food content, cooking demos, or kitchen lifestyle shots.

- The Living Area: Defined by a floor-to-ceiling ribbed feature wall (slatted timber) that adds incredible texture and depth for camera backgrounds without being distracting. The space is open-plan with adjustable track lighting, mid-century dining furniture, and a rich brown corduroy sofa.

- The Bedroom/Home Office: Features bespoke joinery with a clever hidden desk station—perfect for "Work From Home" or tech-lifestyle scenes. Large window with balcony views flood the room with natural light.

- The Look: "Millennial/Gen Z Aspirational." The space is tidy, uncluttered, and dressed with neutral tones, pops of burnt orange and green, and trendy matte-black fixtures.
