Full refurbishment and remodelling of an 8 bedroom Dowry House in Berkshire, for a large young family. We addressed the sense of entrance and overall flow on the ground floor as it had become confused when a handsome Victorian addition was added to the 17th Century host building. A new 20th Century entrance had further muddled the route to the heart of the house, so our first task was to look at the advantages of reinstating the original Victorian driveway and reutilizing the original front door. The driving force for a total house reconfiguration was to choose the spacious south-facing rooms for the most frequently used areas: kitchen, dining room, hall and reception. This freed up the old kitchen, located in the 17th Century portion, to create a family TV/snug and encouraged us to knock through and connect this to the existing games room. We thus altered what was a rather tight space into an open, friendly and playful one, which juxtaposed the adjacent formal spaces. We looked at numerous ways to link the heart of the house to a new entrance. By further reconfiguration and an appropriate engineering solution we connected the west-facing courtyard front entrance to the east garden via a new entrance hall. This intersected nicely with the existing north-south axis and the resulting orthogonal design vastly improved the circulation and visual legibility. We were able to honour both the period nature of the building and introduce contemporary and playful elements which would contrast. All joinery was highly bespoke and RVN provided a full interior decorative service, sourcing special items of furniture and light fittings.

If you have a larger space, why not add a splash of colour with a painted piece that's packed with storage? This New Hampshire chest of drawers can be configured to suit your space and painted to complement your colour scheme. There's a range of handles and knobs to choose from, too.

This bookshelf unit is really classy and sets a good standard for the rest of the house. The client requested a primed finish to be hand-painted in-situ. All of our finished are done in the workshop, hence the bespoke panels and furniture you see in the pictures is not at its best. However, it should give an idea of our capacity to produce an outstanding work and quality.

Bedwardine Road is our epic renovation and extension of a vast Victorian villa in Crystal Palace, south-east London. Traditional architectural details such as flat brick arches and a denticulated brickwork entablature on the rear elevation counterbalance a kitchen that feels like a New York loft, complete with a polished concrete floor, underfloor heating and floor to ceiling Crittall windows. Interiors details include as a hidden “jib” door that provides access to a dressing room and theatre lights in the master bathroom.

Glass roof link from main triple garage to the house with slate floor, wrought iron balustrade decorated with leaves, staircase leading down to large cellar.

The kitchen dining area was given a total revamp where the cabinets were repainted, with the lower ones in a dark blue and the top ones in 'beige' to match the wall and tile splashback colour. Splashes of mustard were used to give a pop of colour. The fireplace was tiled and used for wine storage and the lighting updated in antique brass fittings. The adjoining hall area was also updated and the existing cabinet modified and painted same blue as the lower kitchen ones for a cohesive look. Photos by Simply C Photography
