Living quarters: Gallerist and designer curates Saint Martins show rooms

Péridis, a former student of the Central Saint Martins art school that used to occupy the building, returns to one of his old haunts for the project, breathing life into the light, airy space.

Founder of Soho gallery and design studio 19 Greek Street, Péridis has been given free rein to demonstrate how the renovated structure can be used as residential units.

He furnished the apartment using pieces including seating from Studiomama founder Nina Tolstrup and lighting from Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, simultaneously showcasing their designs and bringing a minimalist warmth to the fledgling space.
