The whole space is bright, crisp, chic and ethereal.<br />

<div>
The lighting: </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ceiling: a spectacular sculptural piece by David Weeks Studio. Complimenting this; Toboo by Fontana Arte - a floor standing light that has a ceiling uplighter coupled with the potential for a reading spot and finally 'Etica' by ilide which are hanging pendents that sit above the dining table. These have a ceramic inner core surrounded by a beautifully clear glass. Glow red and orange in the evening and create a soft warm relationship with the surroundings. Above the bookshelves we placed 3 LED thin strip book shelf lighting units by Catellani & Smith.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sofas are by MDF Italia: 'Hara' and Vitra 'Suita'. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The flooring was given special attention with a full restoration or replacement and finished with a layers of whitened tones that are pulled from the wall colour to add unity throughout.</div>

<br />
We were asked to assist with refurbishing this extremely popular premises, working with the owner to develop his aesthetic vision for the transformation, we provided design advice and working solutions throughout the process. The turnaround refit was 12 days in total which was achieved for a re-launch just before Christmas.<br />
<br />
The general concept was to marry elements of Victorian charm and contemporary Soho house chic to give a warm, harmonised functional and aesthetic space, close, expansive, crisp and bright, and create a space to reflect their reputation for quality, providing a fitting backdrop for their renowned menu.<br />

Particular attention was drawn to the need for less intrusive lighting whilst promoting a real sparkle. Ceiling spotlights were inset to help reduce glare and all lighting was placed on dimmers. The pendent lighting which we used as a subtle signature piece we dotted around the bar and over the seating to the right of the bar are from <a href="http://northernlighting.no/" target="_blank">Northern lighting </a>based in Sweden.<br />
<br />
Beautiful cast bronze wall lights with an innovative cold cathode Carat squirrel cage bulbs (a breakthrough invention as alternative to the traditional energy inefficient incandescent version) are by renowned Belgian lighting company <a href="http://www.tekna.be/" target="_blank">Tekna</a>.<br />
<br />
The entrance welcomes with its victorian patterned tiles which make an immediate statement - creates a greater sense of space and has attitude. At the entrance we also included lots of antique mirror work vertical and horizontal with borders of moulding, and moulded panel work used repeatedly throughout to add texture and a version of gentleman's club warmth. This can be seen quite clearly in the inky green snug area to the left of the bar. </div>

A waiter and serving station was created in panelled woodwork with Carrara marble, which made the link between guest and food deliberately close. Clean white marble tops and a mosaiced pattern slip glazed metro tiles to the wall, add a playful charm. They also highlight the scale of the room, bringing the front and rear into view at the same time and giving each of these spaces equal status.<br />

Allowing a great deal of light in and giving a quality of scandinavian cool. The brief was to design a substantial ground floor extension that would work in both contrast and harmony with a traditional North Oxford house.<br />
<br />
The development of this design was carried out over a long period of consultation with the clients, to get the maximum quality to the space whilst working within a specific budget. Architecture was devised working with Ifor Rhys, and the contract completed to a great standard by Stuart Barr Ltd.<br />
<br />
Its a picture of restraint, and with the settling of this project late in the year it will be very exciting to see the garden and extension in full bloom giving the full picture to the original concept of outdoor / indoor extension.<br />

In brief, a small existing extension was removed, and the back of the house opened up to create a through kitchen an huge space for indoor/ outdoor dining and entertaining, linked externally by level threshold paving externally.<br />

Wrap around sliding doors on the corner take in even the winter sun, and create a real sense of openness. These were commissioned and installed by fineline aluminium architectural glazing who's slimline profiles particularly suited the projects requirements. Detailing the exterior includes <br />
<a name='more'></a>level thresholds seamlessly linking the natural stone inside and out, colour matched guttering and rainwater pipes, and reclaimed bricks and tiles so that the not inconsiderable extension blends with the original house and neighbouring rooflines. </div>

The paved areas at the rear fall to lawn level in large patio steps for outdoor seating. The flooring on the main patio follows through on the same level as the extension with a large format non slip slate. Cut outs in the paving against the garden wall create pockets for planting, mainly herbs but with some herbaceous planting for volume. </div>

This impressive extension was designed in collaboration with <a href="http://www.iforrhys.com/statement.html" target="_blank">Ifor Rhys architect</a> which with his clever roofline detail adds vertical church like architecture to the whole shape of the project space. From the kitchen through the top of the window there is also a small view of the canopy of the large Oak at the rear of the garden through the standard patent glazing roof lights. Curved plaster rolls internally soften the whole space, and the light floats rather than creating shadows. </div>

The roof is very neat and incorporates riverbed shingle with the necessary falls to drainage.<br />

This elegant stove feature was designed with scandinavian ceramic fireplaces in mind. It was put on the angle to allow a view of the fireplace from all over the room and to make it more inclusive and social. The running pattern design of the flooring follows up the chimney breast. The side of the fireplace allowed for a slightly concealed open storage section for wood and stove ephemera, but this is not so evident from the main part of the room.</div>

The architecture works to capture the suns position in that it would throw light around the whole of the space. A long large gallery wall also creates a space for display bringing a museum like quality to the room and lit by Nordlux lighting spots. The TV and sound bar get incorporated into the skin of the building so as not to become too prominent. </div>

A 10-12 seat extending table in solid ash some 3.1metres long in full extension. In normal station it is an 8 seater with a width of 1metre 10cm. The light ash wood with striking long grain creates a real drama and presence in the room. This was made by rogue-designs in November and was installed just prior to the festive period.<br />

These are some of the shots from the workshop during the making process followed by some in situ shots. The idea was to retain the top patterns of the ash through to the extensions. The design process given the limitations in size and mechanics lead us to explore the separating of one of the legs into two, with two extensions at one end. We created a carriage that slid from inside to reveal ribs that held the two leafs of the top.<br />

The ribs that allow air to flow, and keep the leafs flat. The leg side stretchers were given a shoulder support in the main stable leg in order to taxi along allowing it to be a guide for re-completing the closure. See below. </span></div>

A bespoke, fully handmade and hand painted kitchen is based on the modern shaker style with shallow simple profiles. It is painted in a warm grey along with the walls to give a sense of enclosure. Overall, the design is understated with its palette of oak, matt honed Carrara marble and dove grey, but charged with warmth.<br />

Simple techniques like replacing some of the door panels with glass to further enhance the light touch' visually allow a transit from one end of the building to the other.<br />

<br />
The solid oak shelving with integrated LED lighting above the sink area is a display space for some of the collected ceramics of the client. The vertical lines of the tongue and groove above the sink address the need to balance and take the visual weight out the the large units to the right.<br />
<br />
The flooring is a large format honed Romany Blue limestone from Portugal and laid down in a quilted running length pattern, with various widths to subtly break up the large expanses.<br />

A view from the sink area shows the island's projection and its position within the kitchen/extension as a whole. The circular light in the dining area is Frisbi by <a href="http://flos./">Flos.</a> It's very dramatic and adds another pleasing shape to the room. It hovers above the table and dims to a glowing halo which is extremely appealing in an evening.<br />

<h2>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #666666;">The rogue-designs workshop has arrived -</span></span></h2>
Well it has been around since February 2013 and here is one of the items recently commissioned by our client for their very large extended living space. It is a day bed utilising 2 very large cast iron and rubber castors and recycled materials that once formed their original kitchen flooring and also their roof timbers. The non-virgin wood was sympathetically brought back to life and treated /finished with a light oil containing carnauba wax mix for added longevity. The addition of white in the mix keeps the wood from yellowing.<br />

The metal work was designed by RD to give that industrial feel. The hex head rivets on the outside continue with the theme. Due consideration was given to its place in the extension and as a consequence we went for heavy duty rubber as opposed to cast iron to stop any scratching or marking of the surface.<br />

The daybed cushions are made to measure with fabric by Ian Mankin, striped pattern and in an 100% linen for durability. On the one side of the daybed (footed end) is a holding bar for <br />
<a name='more'></a>moving the bed on occasions which also allows books/magazines to be stored on a day to day basis. With level surface access to the outside the design allows the piece to be wheeled onto the terrace easily for summer lounging.<br />

The premise of the project was to increase the ground floor space giving better functionality to the house and to allow the family to experience a greater sense of freedom within it. Alongside the extension and kitchen shown here, our brief was to apply a smart townhouse aesthetic throughout in a refurbishment of the whole property.<br />

The a wall of folding doors, and exotic and rich teak parquet flooring were integral to the clients wishes as they represented very strong and important aesthetics. Working with the charm of the original Victorian house, we wanted to produce a bright, modern, crisp space, that linked through from the original by using the warmth and detailing of flooring and joinery.<br />

<a name='more'></a>The kitchen design was devised alongside Martin Williamson of InHouse Kitchens, featuring Leicht furniture and Seimens appliances, and the top is a honed matt white composite stone top, which on the island wraps around the two ends. The bank of full height units in a brushed and textured copper oak cleverly conceals the integrated appliances whilst adding texture and substance to the room. The units are double thickness and appear in certain frames as a large mass. Units on the back of the kitchen side add a great deal of extra storage whilst consuming a small but light cloakroom and lavatory snugly separated from the living spaces. Patent double glazing along the one side of the extension floods light through giving that sense of openness that characterises modern living. Ligne Roset furniture further enhances the dining space. <span style="text-align: left;">In the far corner of the bank of units a tambour unit conceals a pull out coffee maker and other kitchen aids.</span><br />

Initially it was to be a functioning proving oven but was revised to a multi-fuel stove for increased warmth and celebration throughout. </span>Be<span style="text-align: left;">low shows the integrated scandi fireplace with valuable log storage space below. </span><br />

For drama and purpose over the island we used three Circus pendents from <a href="http://www.innermost.net/" target="_blank">Innermost</a>. They are sprayed black on the outside with a copper gold look on the inner. Other lights used are under shelf task lighting just above the sink area and on upper cheek of the ceiling, three discrete white Hero spot lights to add an extra degree of function.<br />

The whole of the ground floor received further treatment, turning what was the old kitchen into a library and media space and upgrading the dining room into a more formal space for entertaining. For continuity the teak herringbone flooring extended throughout the whole of the ground floor complete with a double edging detail. The pendent lighting is a fabulous mouth blown crystal glass piece by design studio <a href="http://www.atelierareti.com/" target="_blank">Atelier Areti</a> named Kirschlag. Two lamps were commissioned and occupy this and the adjoining sitting room / library. Both have differing lightly feather etched patterns and are exquisite with or without light.</div>

The round ceiling rose, as so often happens in these types of properties, disappears over time and it is often a great event putting them back as they add focus and elegance to a room.<br />

It also has underfloor heating which is a real pleasure in a wet room scenario.<br />
<br />
The colour palette was deliberately muted to emphasise the simplicity of shapes and allow the bath real presence, and very much dictated by the full tiled walls in a honed grey limestone full of veins fossil and lovely pattern. Much of the strength of this design was in the fact through the limestone tiling solution mixing larger brick shaped tiles alongside the mosaics. This helps to delineate the spaces for bathing and showering. It also adds a touch of fun and texture to the room. the aesthetic is further emphasised by the mix of grand and minimal fixtures.<br />
<br />
The bath is a Monaco free standing roll top bath. It has views over the green spaces at the rear, and a solid ash floating shelf above for toiletries.<br />

The space was very limited and wouldn't have worked to fit all these items otherwise. The design works very well and functions practically and aesthetically within the brief.</span></div>

The Porch is part of a larger body of work at the property that consisted of a complete revamp of the front garden bay window area alongside an overhaul of the driveway and its multiple levels. It is also the completion of the full renovation at the premises, including the <a href="http://rogue-andmore.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/light-and-springvictorian-house.html" target="_blank">basement extension</a><br />

In the summer of 2012 planning permission was granted and the project started in December later that year. We begun by excavating the whole of the front bay area to the start of the driveway. <br />
<a name='more'></a>A substantial retaining wall and series of tiered planters were created to reflect the shape of the bay rising in 450mm stages to allow one to jump down but not create an actual stepped area. The planting in this area was based on woodland plants that could cope with the shaded conditions and that perhaps would not require the same level of attention as other plants. It is a natural spectacle for the occupier of the house at lower ground level, a backdrop and bit of theatre - the tiers just recede enough to allow some of the sky light through and retain a sense of openness. From the driveway it is not at all obvious that the area exists at all aside from the verbena and the heads of a large variety of lavender ascending. This forms a visual soft stop for cars entering the drive.<br />

The driveway itself was reconfigured from a solid concrete platform to a paved option using hand made chestnut clay pavers that allowed ground water to permeate. The design incorporates curves that gently handle what otherwise would have been an austere frontage due to the imposing scale of the architecture and the volume of red brick. This design makes the space softer , approachable and more palatable. The start of the pathway to the Porch and the end of the handrail form one start point for the curve which arcs towards the Quince tree in the top bed (see illustration). The curved flow is counterstruck in the space left over from the arc by opposing the direction creating a greater sense of an organic system. The pattern is echoed in the curvy iron railings that were commissioned and made to our design. Restoring iron railings is a key project in the North Oxford Conservation Area, and we felt these were an elegant contemporary take on a classic victorian railing. Aside from the practical nature, they carry the sense of undulating movement from the floor to the vertical and give a restrained, elegant graphic show with the red brick wall as a backdrop. This again adds a needed quality in direct contrast to the red brickwork.<br />

The curves as mentioned lead you to the Porched area - the previous Porch was dissassembled and a new large, insulated and enclosed Porch was built. The whole of the facade was kept and reused with a front and rear door designed by ourselves. The front door is placed just behind the arched facade. This gives the impression from a distance, that the door is arched also. The interior has a beautiful spanish encaustic cement patterned floor which brings a happy surprise to the entrance area.<br />

The interior was kept simple. Vertical pine boards and the light created by the conservation velux alongside the silver pendent add a touch of Scandi elegance to the show. The Oak hall furniture is designed and made by Rogue-Designs in our workshop, and was made to fit the the right hand wall as you enter. The shoe rack is a double construction with adults shoes above and children's below.<br />

The extension was a longtime in planning. Although not a large extension it was a slightly problematic one, as a basement excavation. There were many issues to address in the design and during the build. The garden is long and relatively thin and the building is very tall (5 floors). This tends to lock out some of the light during the winter months. A leaky old conservatory was to be replaced, and the back wall of the house knocked out to lead into the new space. </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
We recommended our clients commission<a href="http://www.iforrhys.com/" target="_blank"> Ifor Rhys RIBA architect</a> to design a structure that would give a better aspect on to the garden, a space for dining, and incorporate an existing small utility room. Ifor is a great architect, fun to work with, and konws Oxford houses well. The idea was to open up the vista from the kitchen to allow some more light in and create a space that could work as a slightly more formal dining space. We also commissioned garden designer <a href="http://www.chameleongardens.co.uk/home.html" target="_blank">Rose Lennard</a> to plan a garden that would take into consideration the new building. With Charlotte as project manager, Ifor and Rose, the design that was settled upon looked fabulous. There was an introduction of a roof that ran back towards the house, slightly curved, that allowed a view to the sky from the kitchen and a glass structure over the main area where the extension meets the old building. This light well designed to bring more light in. In tandem, a corner window assists in this endeavour. Rose created ideas around zoning the planting, creating raised beds local to the house for immediate drama, and in the garden, curves along a lawn that took in the old apple tree and reflected the curve of the steps.</div>

A key part of this project was going to be the negotiations with the neighbours. One of the obstactles to overcome was the party wall ownership. Over time the wall had become destabilised by invasive ivy and the washing out of the lime mortar by the elements. This mean't the wall closest to the house was leaning some 30 degrees over the neighbours garden. It took some time in agreements to gain the necessary permissions to rebuild it whilst the extension was taking place. This prolonged the project somewhat, but didn't affect the overall vision.<br />

The building contractors,<a href="http://www.yell.com/b/Blackford+Builders-Builders-Oxford-OX29NN-5048167/index.html" target="_blank"> Blackford Builders</a>, were very sensitive to the age and nature of the building and its surroundings and as such kept the wall looking authentic. They reused the bricks that were salvaged from the wall, cleaned off the mortar and reset them. In total 9 metres of wall was rebuilt. They also took great care <br />
<a name='more'></a>not to disturb the planting of the neighbours garden and the look and feel of the wall from the neighbours side.<br />
The contractors were fantastic throughout the project, really wonderful to work with, and it shows that they really enjoyed the skills used to make and finish every element so precisely; the achievement of this project was only possible through their skill, commitment, and attention to detail. Thank you Jim!</div>

Another concern was the use of copper (looking too bright) that was to cover the roof. This dulled very quickly and had brassed down to a lovely patina within 4 months. It now fits in beautifully and is a worthy addition to the overall vision.</div>

Part of the plan of the extension was to make sense of the space directly outside. This was conceived as an outdoor living space, and an extension to the dining area designed for entertaining in summer. This area is defined by the raised borders, the curved steps rising to the ground floor and the decking area. All the top edges of the borders were capped with copper to tie in with the whole theme. Copper lighting from <a href="http://www.lightingforgardens.com/" target="_blank">Lighting for Gardens</a> were used in various ways to light areas of the garden. We used inset lighting on the steps, spot lights either side of the doors and spike and mushroom lights in the borders to light the path and the trees.</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The external rendering was carried out by a specialist coating company: using a very specialist product called Sto. It was a pure white finish designed to reflect the light around the area local to the extension. It has a special polymer that gives the material a stronger structure. It is also versatile in as much as it can be overpainted in future should it become necessary.</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The decking is Ipe hardwood (colour akin to the copper roof) and was placed down on a 42 degree angle to the back doors. It is raised by 40-50cm with a drain away insert to avoid waterlogging. It also works seamlessly with the interior floor level.</div>

The stairs that lead up to ground level, were cast in white portland cement and curved. Six steps take you from the Ipe deck to the ground floor. They are wide enough to sit comfortably on in summer and to make the use of in winter without the threat of slipping. A slightly brushed effect on top of the tread adds extra grip.</div>

Internally, the Muhuhu hearingbone flooring that you see was continued using the same blocks as the rest of the downstairs. A quantity was bought 3 years before, always with the sight on the extension taking place. We accomodated the idea by having the flooring run underneath the wall that we built, that separated the kitchen to the then 'lean to'. Removing the false wall when the extension was up and the external doors on, revealed the point at which we could continue with the internal flooring.</div>

The garden and stage 6 carried on when the extension was completed. Using Rose Lennard's scheme with a few alterations we carried out the complete overhaul of the garden.</div>
</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</div>
<br />
The garden was completely stripped out during the harsh winter of 2009/10. Work was carried out by myself and with additional works by a hard landscape company i.e. (re-turfing and the patio area to the rear).</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The sweep of spar stones at the top of the steps are perfect for trampling across - they don't tend to move when walking over. The borders are now swelling with new shapes, textures and colours - It still retains much of its kitchen cottage style - due to Rose's planting scheme however her design gives wonderful emphasis to the more mature trees like the Magnolia and the Apple.</div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: arial; font-size: 100%;">Our client is a keen collector of Modern British artwork, and we have already worked together to find some really interesting pieces for another property, with a particular emphasis of female artists such as Elisabeth Blackadder and Sandra Blow, but this time they wanted to look for something more contemporary for this modern apartment. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: arial; font-size: 100%;">The beautiful series of woodcuts '<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">Nachtfahrt' (or literally translated, Night Drive) by German artist </span><a href="http://www.christiane-baumgartner.com/nachtfahrt.html" target="_blank">Christiane Baumgartner</a> immediately stood out for their beauty, originality and haunting narrative quality. </span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: arial; font-size: 100%; line-height: 24px;">About the artist: Her chosen format is monumental monochrome woodcuts taken from her own video stills. She combines the earliest and the latest processes of visual reproduction: woodcut and video. </span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: arial; font-size: 100%; line-height: 24px;">Speed and the passage of time are recurring themes throughout her work.The notion of time is also embodied in her artistic process, which involves the lengthy and painstaking medium of handmade woodcut, with all its inaccuracies and mistakes. Transforming the fleeting video stills into these confusingly complicated and delicately flickering woodcuts can take up to a year, and the results embody both this sense of the chance moment, and the solidity of crafted exactitude. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: arial; font-size: 100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">Whist the series works beautifully hung as a block (see above images from the <a href="http://www.christiane-baumgartner.com/index.html" target="_blank">artists website</a>), we chose to hang them in a linear fashion around the room, which works to capture the video still nature, with the story being told sequentially, and the works travel towards and under a bridge for example revealing itself as you move around the space. The environment of the apartment itself, its linear architecture, and the light and views over the cityscape serve to highlight, converse with and contrast with the work.</span></span></div>

Our client for this project had taken on a big challenge: to transform a quirky and landmark Georgian townhouse from its slightly tired state into a sensitively 'modern' home with enduring design qualities. Along with local architect <a href="http://www.twinchdesign.co.uk/index.htm" target="_blank">Richard Twinch</a> she undertook major restoration and renovation works, including building a ground floor extension with a fantastic oval light-well as shown below. We were commissioned to work on the kitchen and bathrooms, which were required to be high spec but understated and timeless.<br />

Working with Martin Williamson from <a href="http://www.inhouseoxford.co.uk/about.php" target="_blank">In-House Design</a>, we designed a beautiful <a href="http://www.leicht.de/web2008/e/e_kollektion_modern_start.html" target="_blank">Leicht</a> kitchen that makes use of all available space. The kitchen is subtle, minimal and practical; all distractions are removed with handle-free doors and built in or concealed appliances, lending it a feel more of furniture than many kitchens.<br />
The doors are lacquered in soft matte olive and vanilla, with a cream corian worktop and built in appliances including a <a href="http://www.gaggenau.com/GB_en/home.do" target="_blank">gaggenau</a> extractor and Leicht induction hob. The kitchen opens up into the new extension space with its spectacular roof light, and double doors link through to the garden.<br />

The architectural lighting (fixed on what was once a support beam for a dentist's chair that was located in the room above) is a classic <a href="http://www.artemide.com/" target="_blank">artemide</a> design by <a href="http://www.architonic.com/pmpro/michele-de-lucchi/8100432/2/2/1" target="_blank">Michele de Lucchi</a>, and spots built in to the cupboards and shelves provide valuable task lightning. The pale laquered cork flooring compliments the soaped oak, and this other natural element ensures the space is warm with character despite its clean lines. </div>

Our client chose Jerusalem stone, full of character and fossils for the splashback tiling. it is perfectly fitted from worktop to underside of wall cupboards, and a huge single piece makes up the splashback behind the hob. Flat spate brushed steel sockets are unobtrusively set into the stone. Two soaped oak shelves that match the island worktop lighten and add interest to an otherwise dark corner. On display are some of our clients' extensive collection of fine basket making by makers such as <a href="http://www.jennycrisp.co.uk/Site/homepage.html" target="_blank">Jenny Crisp</a>, Matthew Lewis, <a href="http://www.craftscouncil.org.uk/craft-directory/makers/view/?guid=5c19439ecb817fe1&maker_ref=11108&page=106&from_page=/craft-directory/makers/list/&sortby=name&sortdir=asc" target="_blank">Molly Rathbone </a>and <a href="http://www.rushmatters.co.uk/" target="_blank">Felicity Irons</a>.

<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Parktown area of Oxford is a famous landmark site and this project was sited within one of the crescents that exists. The house was built in the late 1850's and was designed by </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Lipscomb_Seckham" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">Samuel Lipscomb Seckham</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> using bath stone as the main building material. He was a surveyor who was commissioned by St John's college to develop the area. Should you wish to visit you will see that It is very reminiscent of the famous crescent at Bath, and was no doubt designed to air a similar grand quality.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The project was to be the total revamp of one of the houses in the crescent (in stages), and as such the owners had decided to commission us to 'lift its spirit'. This project was a total pleasure in many ways, as we both loved the house and its character. The house is set out over 5 floors, the piano nobile with the drawing room and dining rooms on the 1st floor with views over the Parktown gardens. Initially there was not a great deal of harmony in the house (design-wise) as it was split into several separate apartments at some point in its near history. This then meant having a total vision for the place, whilst staging the works and bringing the different spaces together again. Whilst first impressions of the house in this state would to many dictate a total 'rip out' and refurbishment, we felt, with the support of our clients, that a restoration approach could achieve more and retain the character of the property. Restoration is a gentler, but more intricate, complicated and sometimes time consuming project, but the end result is so much subtler and kinder to the house that we believe it is well worth it. It seems a shame for example to replace a lathe and plaster wall with modern plasterboard just because it is flatter - after all, the character of an old house is in the quirks (and ripping out old lathes always makes we think of the person who whittled each piece of timber individually).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whist full of character, the house had been badly mistreated in some ways, and many of the period features were somewhat obscured. Its most notable features were the beautiful handrail that trailed throughout the floors; the tall glazed internal doors; the high ceilings with original cornice and the fireplace in the ground floor living space. The main carrera marble fireplace housed decorative </span><a href="http://www.tate.org.uk/archivejourneys/bloomsburyhtml/bio_grant.htm" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">Duncan Grant</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> tiles and it was this detail that gifted us the idea of using art and craft to give the house an artisan feel, that it possibly once had. We wanted to take the core concepts of arts and crafts, but tweak and modernise, and see if the ethos and character could also work within a contemporary and modern sleekness. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many of the items that you will see throughout are either one-off or unique in someway. So, while we adapted some of the arts and crafts designs, we weren't faithful to them. In fact we gave the designs a modern twist, something that would sit alongside individual modern items and not look out of place.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is a house like no other and so</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> for inspiration we decided to visit </span><a href="http://www.blackwell.org.uk/" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">Blackwell House</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, an arts and crafts exhibition house, situated in the Lake District, which houses a wonderful collection of relevant pieces. </span><a href="http://www.demorgan.org.uk/de-morgans/william-de-morgan" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">William de Morgan</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> tiles adorn the fireplace surrounds in the large house. Also on show in the exhibition at the time, were lots of ceramic work. The hallmark of the arts and crafts period was the level of embelishment. Nothing was left blank and ordinary if at all possible. </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the time of investigating where we should place our design, we came across an artisanal nature to the craft industry in Holland and in the UK. Leading designers like <a href="http://www.jongeriuslab.com/" target="_blank">Hella Jongherius,</a> were bringing their passion for 'handmade' skills within modern production methods to the table. </span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its a galley style kitchen, tapering to the back wall. A 3 metre long worktop island unit separates the dining space from the rest of the kitchen, and cupboard doors to the dining side give access to plates and glasses. The island unit is made using solid maple, providing storage and housing two built in fridges. An electric oven and a ceramic hob supplement the aga, and provide alternative cooking means during hot summers. The handles were created using maple and brass as an insert. Each of the handles were carved with their own unique pattern.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The element of carving and piercing also shows in the end panel of the island unit. </span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lighting throughout the room was commissioned from</span><a href="http://www.album.it/english/default.asp?d=prodotti.asp" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank"> Album</a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> lighting via the marvellous </span><a href="http://www.cameronpeters.co.uk/" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">Cameron Peters Fine Lighting </a><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> based in Ardington, near Wantage, Oxfordshire. Album, an Italian firm, specialise in suspended LED and halogen lighting for heritage projects - since the cabling runs around the top of the walls, and is only fixed at minimal points, it is perfect for heritage or valuable ceilings, and much more sensitive a scheme than halogen spotlights. We chose a mix of light modules for interest and to mark different areas - thus elegant blown glass fittings are suspended above the dining table, and architectural spotlights provide task lighting above the island. For fun, a single moon piece hangs above the sink area.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Full height sliding wooden doors act as shutters in front of the glass doors which lead to the garden. We adorned these with a mural of cow parsley, in a slightly darker colour than the paintwork, so as not to make it too pronounced, but play with how you percieve the room and how you experience it. </span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The cowparsley theme ran into the splashbacks.</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This was experimental (a technique more often associated with exhibition stands) but works tremendously well. They are very colorful and add another level of patternwork that uplifts the space either side of the chimney breast. These were designed by Charlotte and printed onto thick perspex. The perspex was separated by a few centimetres from the wall, and an LED lighting strip was placed between, in order to light up the panels from behind and add further refinement to the overall design. They fit very precisely from worktop to underside of wall cabinets.</span><br />

In this drawing room (a proper, first floor affair) light and the huge windows are all. We wanted to create a design that played with formal traditional drawing room style, and messed about with it, adding colour and fun. A huge element of the room is the floor to ceiling shelving structure, which is constructed from ash with an ebonised hardwood that delineates and configures the structure. This was designed to house various elements including books, objects, TV and media and a stereo with space for cd's. This was a one-off item which we created for the client. It holds your attention and commands the space that it lies in. There is an almost art deco feel to it, with the dark and light woods and polished finish.<br />

The sofas were sourced from Fran at Liscious Interiors, and re-upholstered in striking fabrics in soft brushes cotton. The colours reflected the dining space but lifted and lightened. The Chesterfield grey sofa has a purple running through it and we applied very bright violet buttons to the piece and dressed with lime accents. The lime - or chartreuse - Chesterfield was very simply dressed and as such we reversed the colour works and had predominantly purple striped cushions in a deep velvet. </div>

The beautiful carrera marble fireplace is a focal point, its gas fire supplementing the classicv column radiators (in anthracite) we put in, and the alcoves either side are wallpapered with a fantastic <a href="http://www.jocelynwarner.com/" target="_blank">Jocelyn Warner</a> design. Period chairs were limed and re-upholstered in a funky silk, and an <a href="http://www.royalacademy.org.uk/academicians/painters/elizabeth-blackadder-ra,163,AR.html" target="_blank">Elizabeth Blackadder</a> piece catches the eye above the fire.<br />

Previous to its present incarnation, this was a jumbled space, cold and dark and possibly with mixed use. In its present form we decided to change shape a little. Keeping the 'hand made element' we made something a little more formal i.e an evening dining space for guests.</div>

<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Our client wanted a dark, intimate and rich palette, but with linking colour from the drawing room next door. Assisted by our client the colour we chose was a plum colour, in a proper flat matte, not cold. It sits more in the red spectrum. This gives it a deep lushness that with the addition of evening candle light, brings in a grandiose quality.</div>

Of the candelabra; it is hand crafted by French makers <a href="http://www.cameronpeters.co.uk/products.php?view=BEN1-CH-10187-1" target="_blank">Benoit Vieubled </a>and acquired through <a href="http://www.cameronpeters.co.uk/page03.html" target="_blank">Cameron Peters Fine Lighting</a>. Its artisan qualities shine out. Made from brass and copper and french glass yoghurt jars and crystals. It was further modified by myself with deft assistance by the owner, converting it from electrical to hold candles. Furthermore, it hangs by sash cord which is fixed via a pulley system and tied off near the dumb waiter. This allows the piece to be raised and lowered when necessary. Secondary lighting is via the picture lights overhanging the inherited pieces of our client.</div>

<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
On first entering the room from the hallway it becomes obvious that the dumb waiter is no longer functioning. Due to modifications in the past it had become a non viable restoration project. This left us with the awkward shape in the corner! As the owner wished to house some of his wine collection we decided that the best purpose of the woodwork was to turn it into a wine rack. I think this works especially well and looks rather neat and perfect as well as being architectural and fun.</div>

This project was the second of 3 commissions by our client, after working with them on the design of <a href="http://rogue-andmore.blogspot.com/2010/08/oxford-loft-bedroom-and-on-suite.html">loft with on-suite</a>, and then later their <a href="http://rogue-andmore.blogspot.com/2010/09/garden-design.html">garden</a>.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This began life pre-extension and the remit was to design a kitchen that was highly functional and host various items like a large and rather special <a href="http://www.eurocave.co.uk/wine-cabinets-index.html">eurocave</a> wine fridge (see photo) and also a smaller wine unit to be housed in the island unit. The list of appliances continued; there was the <a href="http://www.lacanche.co.uk/">Lacanche</a> range; a multi ring gas burner that was to stand centre stage in the kitchen. The owner being a very interested and extremely capable chef insisted upon this furniture, and why not! The extension was cleverly designed by architect <a href="http://eynsham-pc.gov.uk/shop_detail.asp?BusID=218">Tony Reedman</a>, making much of a slightly awkward space. The extension was carried out to a very good standard and so made the process of designing for the space much easier than it could have been. It is imperative that your builder is accommodating at this stage as various items will impact on the final design. Whilst some features had to be altered i.e.size of steel beams holding up the house, most of the structure and size was kept within targets. Working with an experienced design team at In House, we organised a design that fitted the needs of the client and made sense of the space: ample room for cooking, room for art on walls and a place where this family could be seated in an evening or entertain. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Kitchens are notoriously difficult to organise and generally work around very clear principles. However, every space is different and can ask different questions of the designer. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: small;">While its recommended that one should have a good understanding of the principles of kitchen design, commonsense and awareness of the practicalities of usage and the dynamics there in, are essential. </span>In the photo > Cabinet work is in a mixture of Anthracite and white gloss both with doors that have matching edge details.<br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />Inset handles on the cabinetry avoid fuss and visually speak more discreetly about a design. They also fair a little better chronographically and tend never to lose that much in style.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;">Set within the anthracite top of the island unit is the Blanco</span> 'zerox' inset sink, with one large sink and a small drainer. Its a 1000mm x 510 unit and has a low profile that keeps the sharp quality to the design.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The lengths of floating shelving, 50mm thick and 350mm wide, were manufactured from the same material as the worktop, also in anthracite and so complimented the rest of the units. Their fixing method is concealed. With the projected weight it was considered that allowances should be made during the building process to accommodate it: as a result, medium density building blocks were used rather than thermalite blocks at the fixing points, in order to secure them.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The colour on the wall is very striking and was chosen by Charlotte. Strong accent colour like this can be quite hard to work with, but we both felt there was a great deal of spirit and good health about this colour and to use it in the scheme would be very affirming. In fact, later on you will see that the colour is repeated in the <a href="http://rogue-andmore.blogspot.com/2010/09/garden-design.html">garden design</a>. To see this room of an evening, have a look at the <a href="http://rogue-andmore.blogspot.com/2010/09/kitchen-in-use.html">kitchen in use</a> post, which shows off how joyful and colourful even such a vividly minimal and practical kitchen can be.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The owners had recently moved into the house and required it to be modernised throughout. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Many of our customers enjoy the need for the works to be staged, rather than to be carried out all at once. This affords them the ability to assess the scheme and its direction without being bombarded with a great many decisions all at once. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The starting point of this particular project was to be one of the main bathrooms and culminated in the overhaul of the 25m garden area, completed on the back of a special extension.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">This is a great space for relaxing, that's set in the heart of the top floor, between 2 bedrooms. The room doesn't have a window, however it makes up for the lack of natural light by using light and reflection. There is a spectacular floor-to-ceiling marble wall with </span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">an alcove inset that is lined with the narrow strip oak. This is also lit from above with 2 dedicated dimmable spot lights. The bath is freestanding and is painted on the outside in a light green grey, and the whole thing is sat on two oak cradles. The colours are all complimented by the colours in the natural stone. The lemon marble tiles fitted tightly to each other and the appearance was more monumental rather than 'tiled'. The colour on the walls and the ceiling were painted in a satinwood finish and allowed light to reflect off it for further space and light enhancement.</span></span></div>

The vanity unit itself has 2 sliding mirrors that give the illusion of more space. It was imperative to create the feeling that the space was light and that it was expansive in nature. Behind the sink; a mirror and above this, another one-off unit that was over 1.5m in length and had 3 long sliding glass panels. Above this unit another glass panel that hit the ceiling. The illusion was cemented further by being able to see the ceiling spots in the mirrors.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">This was a recently completed room. Although very small it works tremendously well. The whole design was tailored around creating a very modern feel but with a nod to the buildings victorian build. The room now has an updated charm and function that sits well within its context. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">At just under 90cm wide and at 3metres in length the room was as per its counterpart room above, very tight and awkward with victorian render that was somewhat rough. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">Formalising this for the 21st century was not without its hitches. prior to our intervention t</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">here featured a sink that was set into the wall, which created a large absence when taken out. The pipework that ran under the floor was actually supporting the old flooring at certain points. Yet these were surmountable.</span></div>

<a name='more'></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">that moves out of the way for access. This allowed a much larger mirror to be had. This also helped to bounce light around the space. The wallpaper is 'Anemone' by Neisha Crossland. The toilet pan is by Antonio Lupi - 'evakuo' and the basin that sits upon a 'one-off', rogue-designs stained oak basin unit with concealed toilet roll holder is 'Orbis'. Its a wonderful shape, a tear drop shape that presents well. The tap is by Dornbracht; 'IMO' that has a pressured lever that is wonderfully smooth to operate. The floor is a dark Oak stained floor on construction ply which was wrapped up and formed part of the toilet back panel. The ceiling pendent light is 'circus' by the Italian brand Foscarini and works very well to provide a subtle yet glowing light through the space.</span><br />

This particular project features on our main web site. However I thought I would share more photos with you. The project itself featured in Living etc magazine (front cover no less) and also featured as one of their 50 best for that year. </div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The whole of the interior was knocked through and opened up to maximise the level of light penetration from the back of the house.</div><div style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The kitchen boasted 40mm walnut worktops that wrapped around 3 sides and at the end had a small breakfast bar area. Along the main wall through to the dining space there was another bank of units that carried a greater amount of space for food storage and prep. The inset sinks add to the designs less cluttered aspect. Walnut insets were created to sit over the sink when not in use.</span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="color: #666666;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The walls were very exciting and somewhat experimental. They are of a concrete render which had black volcanic glass granules thrown at it in the last stages of its preparation. The whole thing then rubbed up and when dry, rubbed back slightly to reveal the penetrated glass. </span></div><div style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lighting in the dining space in image 4 was sourced from a london antique centre that specialised in italian mid century lighting design.</span></div><div style="color: #666666;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The dining space also had space for an bubble chair to be secured to one of the main roof supports.</span></div><i></i><br />
