An abandoned water mill in Oxfordshire, England, has been transformed into modern offices by architect Ash Sakula, a partnership between Cany Ash and Robert Sakula. Refitting the mill's interior for client TSS cost some 250,000 pounds sterling. Another commercial success for the partnership is the addition of a 100,000 pound sterling spiral staircase to the outside of a 1950's industrial unit in north London.
