Queen's Park House
Carver Farshi
Brent, 2025
Our client approached us with a challenging but exciting brief; to create “a home that is warm but wow, generous and bright. For family, friends and entertaining. A window onto the world”. To do so involved a complete transformation of this Victorian property, and the careful marriage of existing traditional elements with bold and contemporary interventions. The design features a rear and side extension, carefully inserted beneath the existing outrigger, and a large basement washed with natural light. The complex interplay between new and old is resolved with a unique layering of volumes and materials, and meticulous detailing throughout.
“Our home is a dream come true. From the dinner parties to the children’s parties, from morning light through to that special hour just before dusk, it is so beautiful, so alive. The architecture and space accommodates it all. Sometimes we wish the team at Carver Farshi could see how we are using it, how it comes alive in different moments, and how perfectly they captured it all. We feel so lucky to have worked with such a talented and determined team.”
