This bright, open 2 story gallery space serves as the house entry. A new stairway made of cherry wood and steel makes a dramatic entry focal point and leads up to the second story.

When remodelling this four-storey Victorian terraced house, the number of bedrooms were increased, living spaces enlarged, rear extension introduced and tiny walled-in garden embraced - all within 4.5 meters between the property's party walls!
The internal circulation was reorganised by removing the existing staircases, which immediately increased habitable floor area and created direct garden access. A new single, three-storey straight stair was built between one party wall and a three-and-a-half-storey timber stud partition. This stairway has open or glazed 'punctures' that keep an otherwise narrow area awash with light and feeling spacious.
The inclusion of fire rated glazing into selected punctures meant that two floors could act as a single fire compartment. Hence there is unrestricted open plan living on both floors that complies with Building Regulations. For example there is an open plan kitchen-dining-study on lower ground, and interconnected front and rear receptions as well as a garden reading room on upper ground. The fully glazed reading room overlooks the garden, bringing the outdoors in.
The planning permission for this project in Conservation area was granted from Camden Council without any objections.

"Business in the Front, Party in the Back"
This project provided Mark with the opportunity to revisit a project from the first year of his practice. Our clients were the third owners since Mark first worked on this house in 1987. The original project had consisted of a small addition to the rear of an existing single-story (over garage) house. The new owners wanted to completely remodel the house and add two floors. In addition they wanted it to be MODERN. This was a perfect fit for where the firm had evolved to over the years, but the neighbors weren't having it. The neighbors were very organized and didn’t like the idea of a large modern structure in what was a mostly traditional block. We were able to work with the neighbors to agree to a design that was Craftsman on the front and modern on the interior and rear. Because of this dichotomy, we sometimes refer to this as the "Mullet House". We were able to minimize the apparent height of the facade by hiding the top floor behind a dormered roof. Unique features of this house include a stunning roof deck with glass guardrails, a custom stair with a zigzag edge and a guardrail composed of vertical stainless steel tubes and an asymmetrical fireplace composition.
