FPArchitects have restored and refurbished a four-storey grade II listed Georgian mid terrace in London's Limehouse, turning the gloomy and dilapidated house into a bright and minimalist family home. Located within the Lowell Street Conservation Area and on one of London's busiest roads, the early 19th century building was the subject of insensitive extensive works in the mid 1990s when much of the original fabric and features were lost. FPArchitects' ambition was to re-establish the decorative hierarchy of the interiors by stripping out unsympathetic features and insert paired down decorative elements that complement the original rusticated stucco, round-headed windows and the entrance with fluted columns. Ancillary spaces are inserted within the original cellular layout with minimal disruption to the fabric of the building. A side extension at the back, also added in the mid 1990s, is transformed into a small pavilion-like Dining Room with minimal sliding doors and apertures for overhead natural light. Subtle shades of colours and materials with fine textures are preferred and are juxtaposed to dark floors in veiled reference to the Regency and Georgian aesthetics.

The Sun does not realise how wonderful it is until after a room is made. https://www.facebook.com/architabd https://www.facebook.com/architabd

Extension and refurbishment of a semi-detached house in Hern Hill. Extensions are modern using modern materials whilst being respectful to the original house and surrounding fabric. Views to the treetops beyond draw occupants from the entrance, through the house and down to the double height kitchen at garden level. From the playroom window seat on the upper level, children (and adults) can climb onto a play-net suspended over the dining table. The mezzanine library structure hangs from the roof apex with steel structure exposed, a place to relax or work with garden views and light. More on this - the built-in library joinery becomes part of the architecture as a storage wall and transforms into a gorgeous place to work looking out to the trees. There is also a sofa under large skylights to chill and read. The kitchen and dining space has a Z-shaped double height space running through it with a full height pantry storage wall, large window seat and exposed brickwork running from inside to outside. The windows have slim frames and also stack fully for a fully indoor outdoor feel. A holistic retrofit of the house provides a full thermal upgrade and passive stack ventilation throughout. The floor area of the house was doubled from 115m2 to 230m2 as part of the full house refurbishment and extension project. A huge master bathroom is achieved with a freestanding bath, double sink, double shower and fantastic views without being overlooked. The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe room with its own window. The children's bathroom is fun with under the sea wallpaper as well as a separate shower and eaves bath tub under the skylight making great use of the eaves space. The loft extension makes maximum use of the eaves to create two double bedrooms, an additional single eaves guest room / study and the eaves family bathroom. 5 bedrooms upstairs.

Overall concept design is based on deep consideration of incorporating traditional architectural forms but with a modern interpretation. This allows the new structure to blend in while still expressing contemporary design elements.

Ontdek onze transformatie van een historisch juweeltje in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid! We zijn verheugd om ons nieuwste project in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid te onthullen - een tijdloze schat, oorspronkelijk ontworpen in 1890 door de beroemde architect Jacob Klinkhamer. We omarmen de rijke geschiedenis van dit vooraanstaande huis en hebben het omgetoverd tot een gastvrije en eigentijdse woning, zorgvuldig afgestemd op de behoeften van zijn nieuwe gezin. Met behoud van het erfgoed en de schoonheid van de straatgevel, die de status van beschermd gemeentelijk monument heeft, hebben we ervoor gezorgd dat er slechts kleine aanpassingen werden doorgevoerd om de historische charme te behouden. Achter de elegante buitenkant wachtte echter een uitgebreide renovatie van het interieur en een structurele revisie. Van het verdiepen van de keldervloer tot het introduceren van een liftschacht, we hebben geen middel onbeproefd gelaten bij het opnieuw vormgeven van deze ruimte voor het moderne leven. Elk aspect van de indeling is zorgvuldig herschikt om de functionaliteit te maximaliseren en een naadloze stroom tussen de kamers te creëren. Het resultaat? Een harmonieuze mix van klassiek en eigentijds design, die de geest van het verleden weerspiegelt en het comfort van vandaag omarmt. Het kroonjuweel van dit project is de toevoeging van een prachtig modern dakterras, dat een adembenemend uitzicht op de skyline van de stad biedt en de perfecte plek is voor ontspanning en entertainment. Wij nodigen u uit om de transformatie van dit historische juweeltje op onze website te ontdekken. Wees getuige van het huwelijk tussen ouderwetse charme en moderne elegantie, en zie hoe we een huis hebben getransformeerd in een geliefd thuis.
