This Grade II Listed terrace house in London was used as a library for decades following the Second World War, and our project was to reinstate it as a family home. We achieved a complex listed building consent involving extensive remedial works to the rear, the replacement of the existing lift shaft, and a new rear terrace.The project has required careful mending of the fabric of the fragile building, as well as sensitive restoration, alongside contemporary insertions, which are articulated differently. The replacement of a modern roof allowed the children’s space to be spatially adventurous.
The emphasis is on elegance, privacy and clean planning, to allow a fluidity of movement through the large spaces of the house.
