The works involved the complete refurbishment of a 1920's red brick and hanging tile detached house within a conservation area in Hampstead. The house had been in single occupation for many years, and had been extended in a 70's style not in keeping with either our clients new functional requirements or the orginal logic of the house. The client sought to subtly mix of the aesthetic of the orginal Arts and Crafts style with their passion for 1930/40's French deco and the practicality of a modern home. The existing footprint at ground floor but the more shoddy extensions were shorn and the orginal walls were tweaked to provide a better flow and circulation. The later and less durable alterations in the upper floors were completely removed as well as a dilapidated wooden pool house and crazy paving landscape of a similar era to the internal alterations were completely remodeled. The project exemplifies our approach of undertaking all aspects of the design, including the designed aspect of the design from the table linen to the architectural design and the landscape work.

Set within the Carlton Square Conservation Area in East London, this two-storey end of terrace period property suffered from a lack of natural light, low ceiling heights and a disconnection to the garden at the rear. The clients preference for an industrial aesthetic along with an assortment of antique fixtures and fittings acquired over many years were an integral factor whilst forming the brief. Steel windows and polished concrete feature heavily, allowing the enlarged living area to be visually connected to the garden with internal floor finishes continuing externally. Floor to ceiling glazing combined with large skylights help define areas for cooking, eating and reading whilst maintaining a flexible open plan space. This simple yet detailed project located within a prominent Conservation Area required a considered design approach, with a reduced palette of materials carefully selected in response to the existing building and it’s context.

The design for this bespoke kitchen was inspired by the kitchen in Castle Drogo, designed by the architect Edwin Lutyens. Artichoke was involved in the design of the kitchen aswell as the interior architectural detailing of the chimney corbels and inset dish above the Aga (both details taken from other Lutyens buildings). The stone on the two islands is 30mm thick although 20mm was set into the furniture to ensure visitors are not presented with a wall of stone on entering the room. The top cabinets were inset into the wall and lacquered to colour-match the interior design, hiding them from view.
