John visited the Anish Kapoor exhibition at the Hayward Gallery. Anish Kapoor is a British-Indian sculptor known for large-scale minimalist works that explore form, space and material, often using highly reflective or deeply void-like surfaces.
John visited Limewood Hotel recently and was really taken by the sense of arrival as you come through the gates. There’s a real feeling of enclosure and anticipation, with the building gradually revealing itself as you approach. The scale, the symmetry, and the way everything is set out all work together to create a strong first impression before you even reach the front door.
John visited The Pig Hotel in Brockenhurst recently and loved how they’ve taken a historic 1750s shooting lodge and given it a new life. The old building still has all its character, but it’s been gently adapted into a relaxed, garden-to-table hotel that feels completely at home in its surroundings.
John visited The Pig in Brockenhurst recently. The planting, the materials, and how everything sits in the landscape works together in a really natural way, giving the whole place a sense of order without trying too hard.
John recently visited Hampton Court Palace Festival for Pete Tong’s Ibiza Classics.
John visited the Royal Academy’s architecture section recently and was really drawn to the models and early design work on display. There’s something fascinating about seeing ideas at that stage – the different forms, levels, and details all working together to help shape decisions before anything is built. The sketches and studies give a real sense of how concepts evolve and get refined into something much more resolved.
This afternoon we bring you our concepts from one of our Georgian new build commissions in Wimbledon Village. Location NDA. Our client has always held an affinity for a famous house in Wimbledon Village called ‘South Lodge’ which overlooks the Common, and has always wished for their dream home to take cues from this impressive historic house. Through the use of materials; brickwork, stone, slate, lead and design features such as the parapet, chimneys hipped roof and stone surrounds to windows we have created a design which synthesis a nod to the inspiration of the past, but feels fresh and original and something they can call their own. The curved walls make for an interesting juxtaposition against the hard lines and help make the transition between the built form and the organic environment of the garden. Spanning full width to form a tall boundary along the party wall for maximum privacy, they diminish towards the back of the property revealing the garden and the outdoor amenity areas.

This morning we present to you one of our favourite recent refurbishments in Belsize Park, North London. This house is a fascinating unique architectural hybrid. Almost completely closed off at the front, the back opens up at a 45 degree angle to address the garden due to the shape of the site. While its rigid symmetry and solid proportions rely on traditional Georgian foundations, its detailing places it firmly within the eclectic interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s. The Arts and Crafts influence shines through in the celebration of crafted textures and metalwork, deep coving and heavy pan-tiled roof.
John visited @rhschelsea last weekend to explore the latest trends in landscaping, materials and outdoor living spaces.
More from this truly remarkable house on Akenside Road, in Belsize Park London. We feel it is important to show some before shots, to show how far this space came through the process. One of the defining features of the house is the staircase which snakes its way up through the atrium towards the front of the house, and the ‘lightning bolt’ metal spindles which are so unique. The stairs were clad in carpet and the entranceway was crampt and boxed in. The space and the beautiful elements inside it were covered up and together the space felt suffocated. We stripped away the detritus, restored the staircase and its original elements including the mouldings, curved steps, original handrail, knule posts, spindles. Our clients are Danish, and wished for the finishing touch to be the insertion of a solid wood, Dinesen Ash floor which we used to overclad the steps. Project led by DGA directors Harrison Groot & Philip Jones Lloyd.
A few months ago we spoke about how some things are best left as they always were and rather than replacement, require careful restoration. This house is no exception. Both inside and out, the house is full of unique design features from circa 1910 which we opted to restore and celebrate. The front door and portico are one such example - Exquisitely well proportioned and elegant with soft frosted glass hidden behind security railings which in themselves have been their own design exercise. Altogether stunning. Project led by DGA directors Harrison Groot & Philip Jones Lloyd. Contractor: @motacusconstructions QS: @eleyquantitysurveying ID: Dyer Grimes Bathrooms: @originalbathrooms
