The concept behind the renovation of RM17 is to create a modern living space that pays homage to the original design while transforming it into a contemporary residence. The existing structure possessed a sleek and distinguished character which was preserved and enhanced, with a minimal design leaning towards introversion.
The property underwent a comprehensive refurbishment, which included the addition of a new façade and a rear extension. The process included the recycling of as many existing elements as possible, incorporating durable and high-quality materials and finishes.
The proposal offers a restrained and elegant site specific solution that respects the surroundings, preserving the distinctive elements of the existing building and the typical features of the Mews typology.
“Since moving back into the house in May 23 we have had many comments about how beautiful the facade looks but this definitely continues on the inside. The daylight on the ground floor is much improved, the middle floor flows much better with the extended floor and kitchen and the top floor is so much more spacious than we had anticipated and with the connection to the private roof terrace, it’s an absolute joy to use.”
