With its decorative mouldings and traditional influences throughout the home, this renovation is a classic take on modernism. Approaching the gates to the property, rich red brick surrounds a beautiful traditional white lacquered timber door with lead lite coloured panels on either side. Entering into the home, deep jarrah planked timber floors lead the way through to the kitchen and living areas. The kitchen was small for my client who loved to cook as well as her daughter’s love for baking, needing a re- configure of the space to allow the kitchen to flow and function between the existing kitchen and small meals room. Outdated cabinetry made their home look tired and needed a fresh take on the newly architecturally extended home. Traditional pairings of fresh whites, marbles and glass are delicately detailed within the design, modernising the homes interior. Lacquered chalky slabbed fronts surrounded by marbled benches and splashbacks, the introduction of curves to the isolated hood and island centre piece and depth injected with deep navy to create a monochrome palette. Warmth is then allowed in by brass hardware, reeded glass, a play on texture with tiles and warmly lit surfaces. Now a cook’s kitchen.

Une cuisine 3D en bois et matières naturelles, inspirée de l’esprit country house chic. L’espace respire la chaleur et l’authenticité, avec des meubles en chêne clair, des plans de travail en pierre naturelle, et des détails artisanaux qui rappellent les maisons de campagne élégantes. Les textures brutes et les teintes douces — beige, lin, sable — créent une ambiance apaisante et intemporelle. De larges fenêtres laissent entrer la lumière, mettant en valeur la patine du bois et les accents en laiton vieilli. Cette cuisine marie fonctionnalité et charme rustique, où chaque élément évoque la nature, la convivialité et le confort d’une maison de campagne modernisée.

Cette réalisation met en lumière l'impact majeur qu'un système de revêtement d'acrylique peut avoir sur la valeur et l'esthétique globale d'une résidence. Sur ce projet, nous avons harmonisé plusieurs éléments pour créer une signature visuelle moderne et cohérente sur l'ensemble de la propriété. Travaux inclus dans cette transformation globale : Finition du solage (Crépi) : Application d'un crépi d'acrylique sur toute la base de la maison pour une protection étanche et un fini uniforme. Surfaces de béton : Resurfaçage complet du balcon avant et des escaliers, utilisant une teinte complémentaire pour un design équilibré. Murs extérieurs : Intégration de l'acrylique sur les sections murales pour moderniser les anciens revêtements et améliorer la durabilité de l'enveloppe du bâtiment. Le résultat est une maison qui semble neuve, protégée des pieds à la tête contre les intempéries et le cycle de gel-dégel. Cette approche globale assure non seulement une protection maximale du béton et de la structure, mais elle rehausse instantanément le "curb appeal" (l'attrait visuel) pour tout le voisinage.

Kids' room - transitional kids' room idea in Chicago

The brief: Our clients own an apartment in a mansion block overlooking Clapham Common. They wanted to modernise and bring the apartment up to date and had a few goals: To change the existing small cellular spaces in the apartment to create a new open-plan room To extend into the loft and create a new master bedroom suite To create a roof terrace for some much-needed private outdoor space The key to the brief was to ensure a good connection between the different levels of the apartment and ensure natural light could flood into all spaces. The apartment is in a conservation area, which was an important consideration. The solution: We changed the primary room space to run from the front to the back of the building. This change created the large kitchen dining living space our clients wanted, an area with good natural light throughout and at all times of the day. We created a master bedroom suite in the loft space, with generous room size and lots of natural light. The limitations of the building’s form meant that a critical aspect to creating these larger living spaces was carefully considered smaller areas, including the bathrooms and a pocket utility room. The circulation space was carefully considered, too, with the landings used for storage in the form of new joinery. The stairs were vital in the design. Creating an in-between/half level meant we made the most of the flat roof extension for a bedroom suite and terrace. It also helped natural light get into the centre of the apartment, creating a clear connection between the different floors. The stairs also help to mark the difference between the existing and the new. We shifted the design from a minimalist take on traditional metal balustraded stairs to open tread steel stairs with a glazed balustrade. Externally, we kept the design quite simple and in keeping with the context. By adding dormers to the front and back, we created a sculptural and fun loft space. The result: A spacious, light and luxurious apartment for our clients Gareth and Mary in a Clapham Common Conservation area. We asked about their experience with Granit, and we are pleased with their response: Our experience overall is very good, even with the unexpected difficulties created by Covid. If you are thinking of appointing an architect and interior design firm, Granit should be seriously considered.
