For this Kensington townhouse we undertook a comprehensive reconfiguration of the internal architecture, redesigning the layout across multiple floors to create a series of bedroom suites with integrated dressing rooms and en-suite bathrooms. The kitchen was completely reimagined and all bathrooms were relocated and redesigned to improve the overall flow and functionality of the house. Bespoke joinery was designed throughout, including the hand made Shaker style kitchen and fully tailored master dressing room, with the architectural alterations and interior detailing conceived as a single, cohesive scheme.
Beneath the main staircase, audio-visual equipment required access while remaining visually concealed. We designed a folding wall of antiqued mirror panels that opens to reveal the equipment beneath the stairs while forming a reflective surface when closed, helping to distribute light within the basement space. A seamless resin floor combined with Venetian polished plaster to the walls and ceilings was used throughout the basement, creating a continuous surface that enhances the sense of light and spatial openness.
In the dining area, a 14th-century elm refectory table is paired with Kaare Klint dining chairs, creating a deliberate contrast between historic weight and the refined proportions of Danish modern design. The exposed brick wall provides the only departure from the surrounding Venetian polished plaster, adding texture and warmth, while a sculptural chandelier casts a soft pattern of light across the ceiling.
