Our challenge at Kew was not only to create an elegant home that is able to grow with and adapt to a family lifestyle, but to also distinctively modernise the Victorian terrace. Central to the brief was creating an extra living space for older children, which was achieved by incorporating a rumpus room and window-seat nook that connects the indoors with the outdoors, allowing us space to also include a well-crafted first-floor glassed-in cellar.
