With rising real estate prices, prospective London residents are on the lookout for stylish and affordable homes, which is where Bert and May's modern micro-flats come into play. The structures are small and sleek, while exuding sustainability and modernity.
To acquire this pad, future homeowners will need to purchase a plot of small land that can access water, gas and power. The proposed house is meant to be a movable structure, which allows owners to bypass planning permission when building structures.
Elements or concepts from the stylish and affordable flat can also be used to create a contemporary extension to existing houses, or serve the purpose of a guesthouse.
Bert and May are known to use sustainable materials such as aged natural oak and reclaimed tiles. Branded as "lifestyle boxes," Bert and May offer multiple designs and sizes.
