“Marston Properties are working with Pablo and his team on a proposal in Fulham, to design a passive house and explore the potential to reconfigure a block of flats, including a roof extension. Pablo has been a pleasure to work with, demonstrating an excellent understanding of the design brief, producing an imaginative concept, with fantastic design ideas. The service received has been outstanding and we look forward to submitting our pre-application, before incorporating the Local Authorities feedback, in order to hopefully gain a viable, exemplary planning consent.”

Fulham, Hammersmith and Fulham, Greater London, London, UK
Description:
Redevelopment of a block of flats of four storeys with a roof extension and conversion of garage into a new build house with basement.
Notes: The concept is based on the folding of the envelope maximising the internal spaces and minimizing the impact on the right to light and daylight to adjacent and neighbouring properties.
The Idea
New build development with Passivhaus standards. Standing seam zinc cladding and timber was used for this development as the massing is sculptured in relation to the right to light, daylight and effect on general amenity of neighbouring properties.
The shape was modelled parametrically with the daylight and views from the neighbouring properties as well as overviewing lines, the approach is contextual and contemporary at the same time.
Interior:
This was developed around a double height space from basement to level 1 maximising natural light in all common areas.
“We faced a number of challenges in this constrained site and our main brief was to maximise the property developer’s investment by gaining as much saleable floor space as possible. We used parametric design to respond to daylight constraints and right-to-light which informed the overall architecture. The result is a breath-taking house that looks like it has been folded creating a sleek symmetry”
