Katie McCrum Studio

Based in London, Katie McCrum Studio crafts quiet workspace and bedroom interiors marked by continuous wrapping terrazzo, delicate linear steel profiles, and layered glass and mirror partitions that reflect light across contrasting textured surfaces. It provides a strong reference when specifying plaster and stone material junctions, detailing integrated headboard paneling for master suites, or deploying slim interior glazing to balance light and enclosure.

Interior study with wood-paneled walls, a timber desk, and floor-to-ceiling glass framing a view of bare trees and water by Katie McCrum Studio.

An interior study precedent demonstrating how warm wood paneling and minimalist furnishings complement expansive floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking a natural waterfront.

What we like about this project
The slender-legged desk mimics the verticality and stance of the bare winter trees outside the glass.

Geometry
Linear room organization anchored by a large timber desk parallel to a full-height glass wall looking outward.
Facade system
Floor-to-ceiling structural glass curtain wall without intermediate horizontal transoms.
Structural guess
Post-and-beam construction with non-loadbearing glazed envelope.
Spatial scale
Intimate residential room scale designed for single occupancy study.
Lighting
Soft, diffused overcast daylight filtering through the large window panes and skeletal trees.
Atmosphere
Serene and grounded, with earthy tones and soft light framing the exterior landscape.
Environmental context
Waterfront setting with dense deciduous trees outside the window.
Spatial experience
A quiet, contemplative workstation nested directly against the natural waterscape outside.
Composition rhythm
Vertical window mullions match the rhythm of the bare tree trunks outside.
