    Project

    Louise and Milko wanted to build the home of a lifetime. Milko's job as a well-paid City banker meant they could think big, so Louise set up her own architectural practice and they bought a disused violin factory in the heart of London's Waterloo. The crumbling building was hemmed in on all sides and had no views, but Louise had a vision of a spectacular loft-style home that would combine stunning design with utter luxury

    N.B. The London Philharmonic Orchestra based at the Royal Festival Hall are not Louise and Milko's neighbours and did not appear in the programme. They should not be confused with the London Festival Orchestra.
