Hood House is a playful protector that respects the heritage character of Carlton North whilst celebrating purposeful change. It is a luxurious yet compact and hyper-functional home defined by an exploration of contrast: it is ornamental and restrained, subdued and lively, stately and casual, compartmental and open. For us, it is also a project with an unusual history. This dual-natured renovation evolved through the ownership of two separate clients. Originally intended to accommodate the needs of a young family of four, we shifted gears at the eleventh hour and adapted a thoroughly resolved design solution to the needs of only two. From a young, nuclear family to a blended adult one, our design solution was put to a test of flexibility. The result is a subtle renovation almost invisible from the street yet dramatic in its expressive qualities. An oblique view from the northwest reveals the playful zigzag of the new roof, the rippling metal hood. This is a form-making exercise that connects old to new as well as establishing spatial drama in what might otherwise have been utilitarian rooms upstairs. A simple palette of Australian hardwood timbers and white surfaces are complimented by tactile splashes of brass and rich moments of colour that reveal themselves from behind closed doors. Our internal joke is that Hood House is like Lazarus, risen from the ashes. We’re grateful that almost six years of hard work have culminated in this beautiful, protective and playful house, and so pleased that Glenda and Alistair get to call it home.

Brick to be painted in white. But before this will happen - full pressure wash, antifungal treatment, another pressure wash that shows the paint is loose and require stripping... and after all of those preparation and hard work 2 solid coat of pliolite paint to make this last. What a painting transformation.

Victorian Garden Apartment, Belsize Park, London NW3

TAG ARCHITECTS

We were commissioned to substantially extend, rearrange and remodel this originally Arts & Crafts coach house in Belsize Park Conservation Area. The house had very few original features preserved, with the interiors dating back to the ’60s and 70’s, when it was substantially enlarged. We obtained planning permission for the front, rear and side extensions and an attic conversion, which enlarged the original floor area by over a third. The internal layout was completely rearranged, with a new relocated staircase, new kitchen, utility, dining and family areas. A new entrance lobby with associated guest cloakroom, wardrobes and sports equipment room was added. The new attic conversion created a new bedroom, bathroom and a playroom plus a lot of new storage space. The brief called for recreating the original Arts & Craft character of the house, largely lost during the successive building interventions. The new front porch extension with high quality oak windows and door joinery positively accentuates the entrance, continuing the traditional construction of the existing building. The rear and side extensions feature large rooflights, which bring plentiful daylight to the kitchen and the family areas within a substantial construction of traditional pitched roofs. The attic conversion offered a new gable roof arrangement with a new circular feature window. The new oak staircase is based on classic Arts & Crafts designs in the area. The exterior of the building was substantially overhauled with traditional materials of oak, reclaimed bricks, tiles and slate. Internally we used oak for all joinery and timber floors, a new staircase and much of the interior furniture. This created a warm and inviting feel for the house carried through all the interior areas. We designed all high quality bespoke joinery for the kitchen, bathrooms and cabinetry, complimented by attractive finishing materials of limestone, marble, stainless steel and glass. Despite the traditional appearance, the house was fitted with very modern hi-tech services of an air-to-air eco heat pump heating and cooling system, underfloor heating, electronic mood lighting controls, concealed trench heating to selected areas, pressurised water system, integrated music, TV and video system in all principal rooms. The house also features a subterranean bespoke wine cellar, landscaped and illuminated rear garden and front drive.

Für diesen schönen Neubau unter Reet lieferten wir im Jahr 2017 unseren historischen Verblender "Typ Westerhever". Das Objekt reiht sich perfekt in die Eiderstedter Landschaft ein. Der nordfriesische Stil wurde ideal umgesetzt und unser antiker Ziegel passend mit Reetdach und Holzfenstern kombiniert.

Grafham, Private House Extension

NVDC Architects

A young and growing family required additional living space in their semi-detached Victorian villa in Dunblane. While proposing a traditional double-pitched roof form that respected the traditional character of the area, clever use of steelwork allowed for the creation of a huge open-plan south-facing space that contained both a generous living area and a dining kitchen. The dramatically undulating roof profile is left exposed internally to demarcate the separate areas. Large bi-folding doors open out onto timber decking to the rear, creating a sense of indoor/outdoor living and forming a strong connection between the main house and the garden.
