Case study: Our recently completed home in East London where the Client can be on holiday, every day
In East London's Wanstead, we transformed a typical terraced house into a Mediterranean-inspired sanctuary. By incorporating structural arches and natural materials like lime plaster and walnut joinery, we created a harmonious blend of form and function. The addition of a semi-circular skylight, affectionately known as the 'oculus,' floods the space with natural light, enhancing the home's warmth and openness.
Arches as cost effective, low-waste renovation solution
Collaborating closely with the structural engineer, structural blockwork arches were used to support the existing loadbearing walls, thereby connecting the rooms at the rear of the house, creating a more flexible, open floor plan. It is a cost effective solution that reduces demolition, construction waste, while eliminating the use of costly ground beams.
