Kensington
London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
Revival and extension of a brutalist townhouse, reworking the building and reconfiguring the five-bedroom home into a generous three-bedroom plan with living spaces better suited to contemporary family life. Excavation to rediscover split-level character and introduce volume to the modernist shell, with exposed concrete retaining walls, sills, and kitchen worktops. New floor to ceiling glazing, a film room, and an atelier-like master suite. Building's thermal performance improved with external insulation, wood fibre insulation, insulated ground slabs, and double glazing. Air source heat pump and mechanical ventilation heat recovery system.
