Francesco Pierazzi ArchitectsThe project sets out to remodel of a large semi-detached Victorian villa, built approximately between 1885 and 1911 in West Dulwich, for a family who needed to rationalize their long neglected house to transform it into a sequence of suggestive spaces culminating with the large garden.
The large extension at the back of the property as built without Planning Permission and under the framework of the Permitted Development.
The restricted choice of materials available, set out in the Permitted Development Order, does not constitute a limitation. On the contrary, the design of the façades becomes an exercise in the composition of only two ingredients, brick and steel, which come together to decorate the fabric of the building and create features that are expressed externally and internally.
Homes by DesignA long driveway leads you to this amazing home. It features a covered and arched entry, two front turrets and a mix of stucco and stone covers the exterior. A circular drive makes access to front entry easy for your guests. The side of the home borders a beautiful and relaxing pond.
Richmond Bell Architects LtdThis large Wiltshire new-build house was designed by Richmond Bell Architects as a Georgian-style replacement dwelling for a smaller, 1960s building. It is set in within a large garden in an Area Of Natural Beauty near Tisbury, Wiltshire.
The new house is a three-storey building with four bedrooms and three bathrooms on the first floor, including a master suite with large walk in dressing room and ensuite. There are two further bedrooms and another bathroom on the second floor. On the ground floor a large open-plan kitchen and dining room opens into a conservatory room that has windows along two sides. The ground floor also contains a utility room, cloak room, study and formal living room. The house is approached along a sweeping private driveway surrounded by mature trees and landscaping. There is parking for several cars and a detached garage set back on the north of the drive. The house was built from local Chilmark stone with a striking front door set to the right of the front face and covered by a large open porch.
SKM Architects LtdOne of our most remarkable transformations, this remains a stunning property in a very prominent location on the street scene. The house previously was very dated but with a large footprint to work with. The footprint was extended again by about 50%, in order to accommodate effectively two families. Our client was willing to take a risk and go for a contemporary design that pushed the boundaries of what many others would feel comfortable with. We were able to explore materials, glazing and the overall form of the proposal to such an extent that the cladding manufacturers even used this project as a case study.
The proposal contains a cinema room, dedicated playroom and a vast living space leading to the orangery. The children’s bedrooms were all customised by way of hand-painted murals in individual themes.

Christensen Design ManagementHistory:
Client was given a property, that was extremely difficult to build on, with a very steep, 25-30' drop. They tried to sell the property for many years, with no luck. They finally decided that they should build something on it, for themselves, to prove it could be done. No access was allowed at the top of the steep incline. Client assumed it would be an expensive foundation built parallel to the hillside, somehow.
Program:
The program involved a level for one floor living, (LR/DR/KIT/MBR/UTILITY) as an age-in-place for this recently retired couple. Any other levels should have additional bedrooms that could also feel like a separate AirBnB space, or allow for a future caretaker. There was also a desire for a garage with a recreational vehicle and regular car. The main floor should take advantage of the primary views to the southwest, even though the lot faces due west. Also a desire for easy access to an upper level trail and low maintenance materials with easy maintenance access to roof. The preferred style was a fresher, contemporary feel.
Solution:
A concept design was presented, initially desired by the client, parallel to the hillside, as they had originally envisioned.
An alternate idea was also presented, that was perpendicular to the steep hillside. This avoided having difficult foundations on the steep hillside, by spanning... over it. It also allowed the top, main floor to be farther out on the west end of the site to avoid neighboring view blockage & to better see the primary southwest view. Savings in foundation costs allowed the installation of a residential elevator to get from the garage to the top, main living level. Stairs were also available for regular exercise. An exterior deck was angled towards the primary SW view to the San Juan Islands. The roof was originally desired to be a hip style on all sides, but a better solution allowed for a simple slope back to the 10' high east side for easier maintenance & access, since the west side was almost 50' high!
The clients undertook this home as a speculative, temporary project, intending for it to add value, to sell. However, the unexpected solution, and experience in living here, has them wanting to stay forever.
