Our client had plenty of experience in designing buildings abroad but sought a London team to help him build a new home in England that would adhere to local planning policies and regulations - something he had less experience with. Ultimately, our client wanted true collaborators who would provide practical and creative inputs without overshadowing his vision. So, he came to us.
Our team embraced this collaborative role, working via video calls across continents to get the job done. While the site was stunning, it was also surrounded by protected trees, which meant we had to work the design around them, unable to remove or relocate them. As you would expect, this made our task slightly trickier, as did the unusual shape of the plot. Because of these quirkier features, we decided to use the existing house as our footprint for the new home, rather than straying too far from what was currently there. However, the new design was to be a substantial upgrade from what previously existed on the plot.
In the end, we designed a generous five-bedroom house with a games room, gym, studio, large living-dining room, two kitchens, and walk-in wardrobes across four floors, including a basement. The result is a spacious house that is both visually exciting and respectful of its environment, with all of the protected trees on site preserved.
