Hackney House is a project designed by LOUD Architecture & Interior Design. This previously run-down family home has been transformed into a bright dwelling with captivating design features for a young, growing family. Years of disrepair had left this house in dire need of modernisation. Photography by Chris Snook

The house required an extension to support modern living; Loud. Architecture & Interior Design extended to the rear and to the side to meet the neighbour’s extension and angled from the neighbour’s wall back to meet the house in a sympathetic way.

The newly designed house has many design features that include: secret doors, new materials, contemporary kitchen designs and internal windows.

This morning we went to check out Poke Presents. A free event put together by the awe inspiring Poke, hosted at cooler now temporary event space Hackney House. 200 or so people took advantage of the free ticket offer and made their way over there with us to check out 'The Internet Industrialist' panel session. Fronted by some of Hackney's coolest start-ups the session involved hearing first hand accounts from people who had recently reaped the benefits of using the internet to take a physical product to market.  One start-up that particularly caught our eye was Sugru. Sugru is a kind of self-setting rubber that makes fixing everyday objects, or modifying them a doddle. Its customer base varies from those using the product to fix cars and washing machines etc, to those who simply want to use it to create cool craft based objects, keyrings, ornaments and so on.

It was interesting to hear how the team at Sugru endorsed the idea of how embracing your online consumer community ads significant vaule to a brand, by using your website as a platform for supporters of the product to showcase their creative uses. 

By doing so they initially had fears about how those visiting the website may disregard the product's potentially practical uses (fixing seals, cables or even shoes etc) when presented with a homepage that made the product look like children modelling clay, and visa versa.

However, they've created a fantastic (fully responsive) website that, by clicking keywords, or arriving at the site by particular search terms, quicly reinterprets the homepage by presenting the user with content and visuals more suited to their need. 

A fantastic example of a how to use a single website dynamically to talk to multiple consumer types.
