We’re delighted to see our latest project moving forward! Last week Westminster City Council granted approval for demolition of the existing building and replacement with a new house with basement. The project is located in a private mews steps away from Knightsbridge tube station. Design of the discreet front elevation informed by the proximity to Belgravia Conservation Area.
In collaboration with @mallettconstruction .

Small scale developments like this one can inject some vibrancy to the road and perhaps encourage pockets of regeneration. This projects reminds us of this simple yet crucial fact: London is dotted with thousands of opportunities waiting to be embraced (and not wasted!)

Do you ever wonder: Who owns Central London?! With an estimated market value in assets of £1.5 billion, The Portman Estate is definitely a big player. The family has been involved in land and property acquisition since -astonishing- 1300 AD. As one of the biggest historic landowners and leasehold structure in Central London the estate is behind several dynamic regeneration projects. 19-22 Rodmarton St (designed by #bennettsassociates) is a gem in their portfolio... the before/after is truly remarkable!

Bottom line: there’s no longevity without change. We’re surrounded by opportunities to improve our cities, they’re just waiting to be taken.

Fast paced city VS slow pace behind-the-scaffold at Norton Folgate.
With the ever changing skyline and omnipresent cranes, historic building conservation works are oftentimes overlooked (but essential to say the least!).
Save the old chimneys!
