Our Clients asked their architect to build a house to would fit in with the neighbourhood’s prevailing traditional facades; but asked us to create a very modern interior in keeping with their tastes and lifestyle.

We sculpted all the interior spaces to create a greater sense of openness (challenged on the top floor by the complex Tudor-style roof lines) employing very clean, modern details.

Materials, finishes and colours reflect the exterior stone and wood in a more contemporary manner. Re-interpreting the exterior’s earthy grey-brown, milk-chocolate stone and dark detailing inside, a careful balance of tone and colour, bathed in light, created a welcoming, homey warmth despite the often-minimalist spaces.  

The result is a gracious home supporting lifestyle of a young family with modern tastes, while fitting easily into a long-established neighbourhood
