This renovation to a double fronted Victorian terrace house makes the most of its interior garden courtyards. The use of rhythmic steel windows to frame the views, a facade makeover of an existing garage, and the reworking of the swimming pool bring visual pleasure and harmony to the main spaces.
The uncluttered streamlined kitchen and raised feature ceilings are a dramatic yet soothing insertion. The black and white bathrooms arranged around a smaller garden courtyard have a timeless serenity, whilst maintaining a distinct style and character of their own.
