The client brief
The owners wanted to update the entire house while keeping its original character. Better circulation, more storage and comfortable spaces for family life were central to the brief, both now and in future.
Design approach
We reorganised the ground floor, improved connections between rooms and introduced a consistent palette throughout the house. Original details were carefully retained and repaired wherever possible.
