Chiswick House
Residential

Chiswick House, London

Paxton Road was designed around how this family really live: evenings at home, friends over, and a glass of wine by the fire. Our clients love to sit down at the end of the day with a glass of wine, so rather than hide drinks away in a kitchen cupboard, we gave the bar a room of its own. The chimney breast is flanked by a pair of dark lacquered cabinets with brass-framed shelves and antique mirror behind, so the bottles and glassware become part of the decoration. Two deep, enveloping armchairs and a small side table make it a place to stay and talk, not a room you pass through.

Chelsea Residence
Residential

Chelsea Residence, London

A classic Chelsea building with an unmodernised duplex inside, reworked into two homes that each feel complete in their own right. Splitting one property into two is about more than adding a wall. Each residence needed its own sense of arrival, its own proportions and enough storage for real life, so the plan was reconfigured and extended until neither felt like half of something.

Chelsea Penthouse
Residential

Chelsea Penthouse, London

A new top floor for a Chelsea townhouse, designed to give the house what the floors below could not: light, height and a view. With a roof extension, the opportunity was to build the brightest rooms in the house. We took the ceilings to nearly three metres and placed skylights over the deepest parts of the plan, so the open kitchen and living space are full of daylight, and opened the room onto a recessed west-facing terrace for the evening sun.

St. Tropez Villa, design visualisation
Residential · Visualisation

St. Tropez Villa, France

A villa living space for long Riviera days, designed so the garden always feels part of the room. Shown here in design visualisations. In St. Tropez life happens outside, so our starting point was a room that never feels closed in. Full-height glazing opens it to the garden and terrace, while sheer linen curtains soften the strong southern light and keep the space cool and calm through the hottest part of the day.

Alma Road, design visualisation
Residential · Visualisation

Alma Road, London

A London family home where the back of the house became the place everyone actually lives: cooking, eating and stepping straight out into the garden. Shown here in design visualisations. The skylight and folding glass doors pull daylight deep into the kitchen and make the garden feel like another room, with an outdoor fireplace so it is used well beyond summer. The island is where everyone gathers, so we made it generous and topped it in the same marble as the splashback. Tall timber joinery opposite takes all the everyday clutter, keeping the room calm, and the banquette by the glass is made for slow breakfasts.

Dublin Bedroom & Study, design visualisation
Residential · Visualisation

Dublin Bedroom & Study, Ireland

One room in a period house in Dublin, designed to work as both a bedroom and a study without ever feeling like either is squeezed in. Shown here in design visualisations. The challenge was to fit a proper place to sleep, a proper place to work and generous storage into a single room, and still keep it restful. The answer was to treat the walls as joinery: floor-to-ceiling wardrobes wrap the bed, forming a snug alcove with its own reading lights, so storage and headboard become one calm piece rather than a row of furniture.

Balham Twin Nursery, design visualisation
Residential · Visualisation

Balham Twin Nursery, London

A nursery for twins in Balham, designed for two of everything without the room ever feeling crowded. Shown here in design visualisations. Each baby has their own cot under its own striped canopy, two little tents that make the room feel like an adventure. Storage was the priority: deep sage cupboards with a wavy relief take clothes and essentials, while scalloped shelves keep favourite toys and books within reach.

Notting Hill Townhouse, design visualisation
Residential · Visualisation

Notting Hill Townhouse, London

A Notting Hill townhouse where colour was used to give the house its character rather than played safe. We wrapped the living room in deep blue so the architecture and the books stand out against it, and set it against a burnt-yellow sofa and sculptural lighting. Bespoke shelving, collected artwork and layered textiles keep the boldness comfortable, so the room feels confident but still somewhere to curl up.

Photo Studio, design visualisation
Commercial · Visualisation

Photo Studio, Ireland

A photographic studio in a grand Victorian building in the centre of Dublin. A working studio needs to be flexible above all, so we let the building's ornate plasterwork and proportions be the backdrop and kept everything we added simple, neutral and easy to move. The contrast between period detail and clean, contemporary furniture gives photographers a space with character that adapts to every shoot.
