This project, completed in 2022, and located at a charming garden square in Kensington, involved the careful renovation and restoration of a c.1815 Grade Two-listed five storey townhouse.

Having recently worked on several minimalist and 'rustic farmhouse' projects, it was a pleasure to get our teeth fully into a Georgian aesthetic.

The house had been 'chopped and changed' over the years; notably during an unsympathetic '60's revamp, but also an Edwardian remodelling, and much of the Georgian detailing had been lost.

This was particularly evident at the front ground floor where, on entering, one was confronted by a low-ceilinged open space with an oversized spiral staircase with a plexiglas 'flying saucer' above.

A priority has been to reintroduce a domestic Georgian scale and detailing, albeit not slavishly following the original floorplan. This includes new cabinetry, cornices and reopened fireplaces.
