BEFORE. This is how this stair was before we reno BEFORE.  This is how this stair was before we renovated and extended.
A bit of a contrast?

This North London house was pretty dilapidated when our wonderful clients bought it. They saw lots of potential in it and we enjoyed transforming it for them. 

One of the key moves was to open up the space around this stair, and making a dramatic new stair down to garden level.

AFTER. Would you like to see what this stair look AFTER.  Would you like to see what this stair looked like before we renovated and extended? 
Follow me - I'll post it shortly.

This Victorian house in North London was really dilapidated when our wonderful clients bought it. They saw great potential and we enjoyed transforming it for them. 

One of the key moves was removing the small, dark, tucked away stair which descended from this hall to the lower ground, and making a dramatic new stairway, facing the garden, in a glazed double height space.

It's so nice when we go to site and are really ple It's so nice when we go to site and are really pleased with what we see.

For those who don't know us, this is Adrie, my co-director & husband.

This bathroom had a really low ceiling. We got Planning permission to raise the flat roof to put a solar panel, skylight and green roof on it - and to get more height and light in the bathroom.

We were so pleased when we saw the space coming together. 

It is nearly finished now, so more pics to come.

I love seeing what we find when we strip back the layers in a house. Was this duck egg blue painted when the house was new, when Charles Dickens had just died, when electric trams and cash registers had just been invented?

I really enjoyed visiting the workshops of @resili I really enjoyed visiting the workshops of @resilica  with our 3rd Calabria Rd clients to choose a mix of recycled glass for their worktop, splashback and various other built in bits and pieces. 

This was before the current lockdown, obvs.

How do you think we were able to remove the supporting structure in the middle (there are four storeys of Victorian house above the lower ceiling on the right)?
