Alteration to existing property, Listed Building - Grade II, Within a Conservation Area
A grade II listed home for a tech-&-style-savvy family which is a key architectural element within historic 18th to early 19th-century York Square. The house exhibits classic Georgian features, stock brick façades, slate mansard roofs, round-headed doorways with intricate fanlights. Full service comprising architectural design, heritage consultancy, interior design and styling, project management and construction administration. The proposals reconfigure the interior, while recognising heritage significance and reestablishing historic integrity. Fixtures and finishes upgraded in neutral tones, sympathetic to the building’s heritage. Lighting replaced with simple geometry pendants and sconces in period-appropriate materials. Externally, new front door in heritage red and replacement of unconsented uPVC windows to the rear with heritage ones. A thoughtful approach reconciles the architectural legacy of 10 York Square with the demands of modern urban living.
