The Vinery is a new build sustainable house project in Hampstead.

The site is a sloping plot adjacent to Hampstead Heath. We have proposed a part sunken house split into two forms; private and public separated by a garden courtyard. Timber and glass bridges link the two parts of the house with a glazed enclosure dropping light to the bottom of the plan.

Thread House is a new project connecting an upper ground floor and lower ground floor flat, in a Victorian terraced house in residential Putney, London. The concept developed from the idea of enveloping and uniting the two separate dwellings into one modern, family home.

Veil House is a new two bedroom house in Camden, London, which is currently being prepared for planning.

The Kempton rooftop project is a new addition to a mansion block in Highgate, London. The new rooftop extension is formed by an external folded zinc clad element, with a rich timber interior. Flush slot fenestration with clear and translucent glazing allows light to penetrate the space.

We were asked by Christine and Matt Frost to be architects for this project in June 2009. Our brief was to design a new, sustainable house on a beautiful sloping site in Tunbridge Wells. The brief included four bedrooms, living spaces, kitchen, study and a recreation room.

We were appointed as architects by Anna and Mark Stafford in June 2008. Our brief was to design a beautiful new sustainable home for their imminent family at 11 Morden Road Mews in Blackheath, south-east London. The site, which included a cottage with a 50’s extension and a large greenhouse, is within a conservation area.
