Heritage Interior Architecture
A true passion project, this early Edwardian house was a precious Forever Home for a quality conversion. It had previously been split into bed sits and had lost many of its original features to 1960's 'modernisation'. It needed a complete overhaul and top to bottom renovation. For A T E L I E R | id the project became a heritage restoration. In order to bring the whole house firmly into the 21st century we demolished, rewired, re-plumbed, painstakingly restored and carefully rebuilt. Meticulous historical and period referencing was a huge part of the A T E L I E R | id process and many classic architectural documents and drawings were referenced.
A T E L I E R | id is now assisting the client to complete the home with carefully sourced new furniture, reupholstery and restoration of heritage pieces, layered soft furnishings and styling with the clients tea set collections. For this client, design perfection can't be rushed.
WEST HAMPSTEAD testimonial
As a medical professional with a demanding schedule and an eye for detail, I approached the refurbishment of my home with both high expectations and a certain amount of trepidation. My London property had been left in a sorry state, stripped of its original charm, and severely neglected over time - as seen in the photos I now look back on with disbelief. From the moment I engaged Katie and her team, I knew I was in capable hands. Atelier didn’t just design, extend and renovate — they revived the spirit of the house. With meticulous research and unwavering commitment, they reintroduced the authentic Edwardian elements that I love: beautifully restored fireplaces with colour perfect original tiling, intricate ceiling mouldings, elegant reclaimed doors, and even stained glass details that coordinate beautifully with my specially printed wallpaper! Every detail, from the extension layout down to the traditional doorbell, was thoughtfully considered, planned and sourced. What I appreciated most was Katie’s respect for historical authenticity with the practical needs of my busy life. The transformation feels like the house has been returned to its rightful state - perfect to my love of the Edwardian Era, my favourite colour palettes and our practical needs and lifestyle as a family. Katie’s work has been truly transformative. Walking through my front door today, I am filled with pride and peace for the elegant home they have helped me create
