Named after and centred around the century old heritage protected fig tree: Casa Figueira is a home nestled into its surroundings. Quietly secluded at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Sydney harbourside suburb of Rose Bay, the topography of the site eventuates to gun barrel views of the harbour and city beyond.

We designed and project managed the extension and refurbishment of this home in South East London, located in the Blackheath Conservation Area. Our scope also included planning, complete interior design, custom joinery design, and selecting key fixtures and fittings.   OPEN ACCESS Originally, the only way to get to the property’s dining room was via a circuitous route through the compact and boxy kitchen. It was a space which felt even tighter due to the fact it only had one small window which didn’t offer much light. The dining room was also doubling up as a playroom and so the family that lives here desperately needed a space that flowed more intuitively, that was filled with more daylight in and that was flexible in i...

Set at the edge of a watercourse below the Harold Porter Botanical Garden, this modest new timber framed holiday house attempts to make the most of its natural surroundings in an uncomplicated way. Damian Schumann The house is positioned to the northeast of the site, screening off the neighbours and opening up towards the wetland on the western side.  Damian Schumann The long axis is orientated north-south towards a dramatic kloof in the mountains beyond. A large, glazed gable end and a clerestory window in the kitchen make the view part of the inhabitants’ everyday routine. By lifting the building off the ground, vegetation and wildlife is allowed to live right up to and under the building’s edge, while intimat... Altro

Riportare le palme: un nuovo elegante hotel e una piazza pubblica nel cuore di Siviglia Borgos Pieper ha completato un nuovo hotel Radisson Collection a cinque stelle e trasformato Plaza de la Magdalena nel centro storico di Siviglia. Il progetto LEED Gold ha reinventato interamente due edifici che insieme definiscono il margine occidentale della piazza: "Magdalena", un ex grande magazzino degli anni '60 con facciata in vetro, e "Rioja", un edificio per uffici più piccolo che confina con Calle Rioja. Il Magdalena era un tempo il luogo in cui sorgeva l'Hotel Paris, un albergo ornato da palme, il posto più alla moda alla fine del XIX secolo. Il progetto cerca di ripristinare un po' di questo fascino perduto, creando una nuova d... Altro

  Rees Architects designed the extension and refurbishment to this Victorian terrace house in Wanstead, London. We were also responsible for planning, building regulations, and bespoke joinery for the build. This project involved an extension to the rear of the property and updating the décor of the ground floor to create a cohesive space for the owners who love entertaining and welcoming friends and family into their home and garden. The property is in a conservation area so we took this into consideration when proposing updates to the structure and layout, all of which were successfully approved without need for modification to our plan.   Chris Snook   For this extension, we retained as much of the brickwor...

  Answering a brief calling to create a relaxing retreat for the parents where they can spend time together, our studio set out to use every inch of space purposefully and intentionally. We considered how to maximise everything to its full potential from space, storage, light, views and flow - while also considering materiality, acoustics, and tactility.    Chris Snook   In its current form, the owners loved the open-plan living space of the ground floor, and as it is a narrow house, they didn't want to lose space by adding something else. The staircase is directly connected to the kitchen on the ground floor and as this is the only practical place for it, this posed as an issue for fire regulations. To resolve... Altro

We were approached in 2018 to create designs for the refurbishment of a double fronted Grade 11 Listed Georgian Crescent House in South London. The brief was to reinterpret the internal layout of the house for a growing creative family. Traditionally the kitchen was located in the ancillary spaces on the lower ground floor, however these had a poorer quality of natural light and a more limited head height. The brief was to bring the kitchen, dining and living spaces up to the principal reception room spaces. Tall floor to ceiling heights, good quality daylight and strong principal views across the crescent and gardens made the upper ground floor spaces much more compatible with modern family living.   Listed building consent was a ch...

Liqui undertook the shop design and build for Browns Natural Pet Store with the aim of creating an environment more like a retail experience than the usual pet shop design. To this end, there is a focus on custom items throughout, such as the bespoke counter and shelving units, as well as the dog grooming salon interior design. Together with custom manufactured slat walling, subtlety branded crates and bespoke trolley units, it all adds up to the perfect retail design that accentuates the client’s brand while displaying a wide range of merchandise in a way that is commercially effective, visually attractive and uncluttered. Everything was manufactured in the Liqui workshop and constructed from dark stained sustainably sourced Birch p... Altro
