Artists’ House

• Kensington, London

  The house is part of a rare of 1950’s modernist terrace in Kensington.

  We agree as a starting point to make it more Bauhausian than it was originally, stripping away all new details, painting the walls bright white and the metal window frames matt black.

• The organization of the house is re-orientated, creating a double height space, a curved office, a timber lined writer’s study and all arranged around a new free standing staircase that rises like a giant saw-toothed sculpture.

  The mixture of spaces provides intimacy, privacy, conviviality and contemplation.

• The rear façade is modified with a new curved glass study added and a new ground level kitchen focused onto the new garden of Palm trees and rolling box designed by Todd Longstaffe-Gowan.

• The kitchen is the main theatre for entertaining. It has a large brasserie type mirror over the cooking area which reflects the amazing garden.
