The project began with a modest brief to address deferred maintenance and upgrade essential services in a family home that no longer met the evolving needs of its occupants. Chief among the challenges was the lack of adequate storage, a pressing issue given the changing requirements of the owners.
As the design evolved, it became clear that there was an opportunity to restore the three-storey building to its former glory while enhancing and expanding its living spaces. This realisation shifted the project’s trajectory towards a more cohesive and ambitious vision, balancing practicality with an aesthetic recalibration that the property had long been missing.
FPA set out to craft a home that intimately reflected its inhabitants, creating spaces that are not only functional but resonate with their lifestyle. The design achieves a thoughtful balance of preservation, enhancement, and innovation, resulting in a home that feels both timeless and tailored.
The historical layout required minimal remodelling, with only localized interventions to improve flow and functionality. Additional space was gained through a hip-to-gable dormer extension under Permitted Development, seamlessly integrating new and old.
Externally, traditional materials like London stock bricks and slates honour the building’s heritage, while internally, a warmer, more contemporary palette transforms the home. Plywood, used extensively for wall linings, flooring, and bespoke joinery, showcases the potential of a humble material, offering both simplicity and refinement.
The material palette and finishes were deliberately understated yet sophisticated. Muted tones create calm and inviting spaces, while selective use of accent colours adds moments of joy and playfulness. The result is a project that feels grounded and serene, yet undeniably modern—a family home reimagined with sensitivity and character.
