The full refurbishment and extension of a Victorian double fronted house, including the design of bespoke furniture pieces and the landscaping of the front and rear garden. Designed to provide a classically elegant shell with contemporary furniture and art, this is a very comfortable functioning family house. Originally in poor condition, the interior was gutted to start afresh. A welcoming view now exists from the entrance door to the garden beyond, with tall, glazed doors that proportionally match the generous ceiling heights. We designed an art installation to span the hallway ceiling, forming a series of overlapping suspended glass and Perspex panels. The principal rooms can be closed into their individual functions as library, reception and art room, but equally can be opened for parties and family events. The master bedroom has a walk-through wardrobe leading to a marble bathroom. Linking all bedrooms is a corridor lined with contemporary paintings and sculpture. Space has been created in the roof, which the two double bedrooms and a shared bathroom now occupy. Natural materials were used throughout, combined with contemporary furniture and lighting to ensure the house was transformed into a light and airy family home.
