Summary
David Kohn Architects has designed a three-storey penthouse called "House on a Hill" atop a Victorian warehouse in Covent Garden, London. The design features curved and angular bay windows that animate a stepped facade, treating the penthouse not as a simple extension but as a distinct architectural statement resembling a house perched on a hill. The project reimagines rooftop living in a dense urban context with sculptural, dynamic forms.
