Variety in Design

​

Over the years many of the apartments in St Olaves Court have been renovated and they all look very different.   Here is just a selection of photos that shows just how different the apartments are.

Original 60's design

Fortunately, one of the residents has retained all the original features.  In fact they were the first to purchase an apartment back in 1961.  Below is a selection of some of the original features designed for St Olaves Court. All the woodwork was made in mahogany.

St Olaves Original kitchen cupboard from 1961 and through unit to living room.
