Ravenslea House

We opened the plan carefully, letting light travel from front to garden, and restored the villa's generous ceiling heights where they had been lost. New interventions are quiet and deliberate — a run of oak joinery, a re-cut stair, a kitchen that reads as furniture.

Materials were chosen to age well and warm with use: honed travertine, oiled oak, lime plaster and patinated brass. The result is a home that feels settled and unhurried, as though it had always been this way.
