Kings Road House / Matthew Giles Architects

Overlooking the South Park Gardens in Wimbledon, south London, this Edwardian house has been transformed in every possible way. Through a tactile and warm approach to massing and architectural detailing, this bold yet quietly resolving family home now enhances the character of the street and is a contemporary equivalent to the traditional brick homes along Kings Road. The client is a family of four with two young children who approached Matthew Giles Architects to develop designs to extend, remodel and refurbish their home. Having recently purchased a dilapidated building in a part of London they wanted to live in, the client saw an opportunity to create a truly bespoke family home. A schedule of spaces required was provided, and they expressed an interest in modifying the appearance of the building externally while improving the thermal efficiency of their detached home.
