Chelsea Townhouse
THE OVERVIEW Animators Mark and Suki fell in love with this Georgian terraced townhouse, but were initially too scared to buy a Grade II listed building in need of total restoration. When it went up for sale again, one year later, they decided not to let the opportunity slip by and – with our help…
Highgate House
THE OVERVIEW After a hugely successful career, our client wanted to take a more hands-off role in the business he watched grow from his bedroom into a global company. It was time to settle down with his family in the home he had worked his whole life for. His Victorian semi-detached Highgate house already provided…
Teddington House
THE OVERVIEW This grand, three storey Victorian detached house in Teddington was the ideal family home for our clients and their two children, except for one problem: it didn’t quite feel like it was “theirs”. They didn’t want to move but they also wanted to live in a home that fully reflected their tastes and…
Kensington Townhouse
THE OVERVIEW Swiss clients Andrew and Frederike loved their period mansion flat so much that they bought the one above and the one below. The vision was to seamlessly join the three floors together with a beautiful sculptural staircase and to transform the new top floor into a luxurious bedroom suite with balconies overlooking the…
Kew House
THE OVERVIEW Our client had been living in her detached Victorian Richmond house for almost four decades. Age had taken its toll: the radiators barely worked, the floorboards were draughty and many of the light fittings were so old you couldn’t even buy bulbs for them. The renovations required were significant, but our client had…
Putney Park House
THE OVERVIEW John & Jemima have a passion for renovating period houses and a talent for marrying the best of contemporary design with traditional period features. A derelict Victorian double-fronted house in Putney provided them with the perfect canvass from which to fulfil their dream. Dyer Grimes Architects set about creating a stunning family house…
Earl’s Court Mews House
THE OVERVIEW Our clients – a renowned English legal professional and an Italian artist – had purchased a run-down mews house with an ugly 1970s refurbishment that sat awkwardly at the end of an otherwise very attractive Victorian mews featuring a listed arch at the entrance. Their objective was to entirely strip out the interior…
Queen Anne Townhouse
THE OVERVIEW Our busy international clients wanted to renovate their listed, Georgian Chelsea townhouse and couldn’t afford to have their time wasted. Unfortunately, it already had been. A local designer had over-promised and under-delivered on the project, leaving them spinning their wheels for months. With no planning approval and only rough designs to show for…
Richmond Hill House
THE OVERVIEW Our client had always dreamed of recreating her childhood home, so when a derelict Georgian house came up for sale, the opportunity was too good to miss. The house was listed and, true to its period, comprised of small dark rooms not suitable for modern family living. The goal was to restore the…
Wimbledon Villa
THE OVERVIEW This three-storey, detached Victorian villa had remained largely unchanged since it was built, except for one significant detail: this once luxurious family home had been subdivided into four cramped and poorly laid out flats. For years, our clients had dreamed of reuniting the flats to bring back the building’s grandeur, and had been…
Maida Terrace House
THE OVERVIEW James and Jo found a Victorian terraced townhouse with the perfect location. It was in Maida Vale, just a short way from where their two daughters went to school, on a picturesque, quiet and leafy street. While the location ticked their boxes, the house itself left a lot to be desired. Prior renovations…
