PCS Residence

The clients’ brief for their family home was to create an inspiring yet calming sanctuary. The works involved a façade retention and complete reconstruction of their detached Notting Hill Villa to create lateral and open living spaces. We focused on combining inter-connecting volumes and double height spaces together with a stunning staircase at the heart of the design. Above ground the floor plates were opened up to allow flowing lateral spaces to the rear of the property. Below ground we excavated and created a haven of tranquillity with swimming pool and family spaces. A double height lightwell combines sculpture and planting at pool level and for natural light and ventilation to enliven the basement spaces.

Details such as the travertine balustrades, bronze door details, ocular rooflights and bespoke joinery, have been crafted with care throughout. Bronze details and deep hued marbles serve to punctuate a neutral calming palette consisting of textural layers of luminous polished plaster walls, Portland stone and natural oak floors. Impressive bronze and oak glazed doors, bespoke joinery with leather detailing and beautifully detailed bathrooms all tell a story of the creativity and care poured into this amazing home. We designed several spaces to incorporate and frame our client’s wonderful contemporary art collection. Peter Mikic Interiors collaborated with us on the project and provided a beautiful collection of furniture to enhance the spaces.
