Chelsea
Townhouse.
A four-storey Georgian residence restored to quiet elegance — each room made to breathe, to slow down, to feel entirely right.
A home that holds its history while making room for how a family lives, now.
The brief was deceptively simple: make four floors of Georgian architecture feel like a home rather than a showpiece. The clients — a couple with two grown children — wanted warmth, functionality, and a quality of light that made every room worth spending time in.
We began with the structure: restoring original cornicing and fireplaces stripped in the 1970s, repositioning the kitchen to take advantage of the garden aspect, and creating a sequence of rooms that flow naturally from one to the next.
Materials were chosen for their depth rather than their surface appeal — Belgian linen, aged brass, hand-trowelled plaster, Dinesen oak laid in a wide-board chevron. The result is an interior that will only improve with time.
