Stark House, Putney
The existing building was in a very sorry state. The front façade had become detached from the building. The roof was leaking and there was a large lift in the middle of the house. The building had not been touched for 30 years, it needed a lot of work.
Springfield Farm, Bath
Springfield Farm, an elegant and sustainable modern family home located in the green belt south of Bath, on the edge of a small rural village.
Reeves House, Clapham
We created openings in walls, removed sections of floor, created a balcony, a mezzanine and a window in the floor. The building is now filled with light and elegant detail.
Dulwich Estate Extension
The extension was simply and robustly finished and the copper should with grace, with a green patina slowly transforming the building over time.
Loft Conversion, Acton
This is a loft conversion with a difference. The folded oak and steel staircase is bathed in light, sunlight punches into the heart of the house, and the top-lit glass shelving walls separates and connects the study to the rest of the house with elegance.
Welbeck House Penthouse, Westminster
The living room was double storey, it sat below a domed roof on the corner of Welbeck Street. We lined the domed ceiling with back-lit lapped walnut panels, replaced the glass balustrades with walnut and installed a walnut-lined library around the gallery. The colours were warm in tone and the flooring added to the feel.

Southgate School, London
The brief was simple. Create a new science lab for a space-stretched science department, the process of delivering the lab was anything but..…
Arts & Crafts House, Teddington
We pushed the planning limits. The rear extension allowed for a very generous living zone, with large kitchen and dining, family living room and TV snug. A long glass roof light brings light into the centre of the plan, sliding doors can open up or close off the open-plan spaces, bespoke furniture divides rather than walls.
Grade 2 Listed Apartment, Kensington
The apartment had not ben touched since the 1970’s, with green shag-pile carpets throughout – even in the bathroom, a sunken bath and flock wallpaper. The flat was devoid of period detail and felt undersized and heavy. Our brief was to modernise the apartment, open it up and make it feel light, and put the period detail back where appropriate.
Editing Studios, Soho
We used an angled high-gloss panelled wall to lead the eye from one building to the other, taking care to use standard board sizes and common components to keep the costs down. A mix of slate flooring and wide-board Dinesen timber flooring added interest to the space and helped to delineate ‘place’ within a flowing circulation area. A shock-pink slot window within the high-gloss panelled wall echoed the colour of the Soho-club signage.
Refurbishment, Acton
We were asked to bring light back into the building, to let the spaces flow and to make the house feel generous again. We created large openings, large feature sliding doors and timber floors that flowed through.
Karen Hardy Dance Studio, Chelsea
The project programme was short at best. Karen was keen to coincide the opening night with the BBC hit series Strictly Come Dancing. This meant negotiating with one contractor rather than tendering, submitting the Licence to Alter whilst we were still drawing and overlapping the construction trades to such a degree that the construction process felt, at times, closer the BBC’s DIY SOS than Strictly Come Dancing.
The Boltons, Chelsea
The final design was finished with a combination of American Black Walnut and walnut burr, with bronze bar inlay. The design sat well against the existing building, the detail was a re-imagining of the existing near-by furniture and the whole installation had the feel of a walnut-panelled smoking room at a west end club.
Wentworth Estate dwelling
Through careful design, we were able to create a modern dwelling, with split levels, balconies and cantilevered elements, with more drama and less mass than the original house. The house had a more direct and engaged relationship with the landscape and the specimen trees around it, the floor area topped-out at 27,000ft2 and was a land-mark planning consent for the green belt.
