Flats with a side of avocado on toast: Monohaus in Hackney is the ultimate hipster housing scheme with vinyl shop, craft beer, artisan ateliers and Nordic café

Monohaus is a scheme of 47 industrial-style flats with offices, shops and a gym in the midst of the hipster haven between London Fields and Mare Street.

Yet more urban glamour has come to the gritty Hackney heartland with Monohaus.

What was an industrial zone of breakers’ yards and small factories between London Fields and Mare Street is now a hipster haven with designer homes and workspaces, ateliers, a craft beer premises, vinyl music shop, artisan bakery and a Nordic café serving avocado on toast.

The development mixes 47 flats with offices, shops and a gym in a new “lifestyle hub” where the boundaries of home and work are blurred. A glazed atrium at the heart of the building acts as a communal courtyard, with seating and shops alongside the residents’ entrance.

Industrial-style one- to three-bedroom flats with full-height glass have polished concrete floors, Poggenpohl kitchens, underfloor heating, Sonos smart home systems and generous balconies or terraces.
