Ten minutes with Laura Logan of House of Logan
How to turn forty years of incongruous design decisions into something visually cohesive, functional and beautiful?
This was the key question posed as Laura Logan and her husband, Andy, set about an 18-month renovation project to transform their topsy-turvy Victorian house in London’s East End into a considered, tactile family home with a focus on circular design and natural materials.
‘We’ve always lived in period properties,’ says Laura. ‘I love the visual aesthetic of Victorian dwellings, and the potential they present for creating a collaborative contrast with modern interiors.
‘We’d previously renovated a smaller house in the local area which we were really happy with, however, I used to walk past this one regularly. The more often I passed it, the more I noticed it: slowly at first, then in a more interested way, until eventually, I fell in love with it.’
Happily, in 2019, it became the family’s new home.
