Description

We are two architects who have lived in this Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse since 1999, and run our architectural practice from here since 2009. In 2017 we designed and built a contemporary extension to the rear, which has won multiple awards. Having completed a body of work and a book publication in 2025, had a number of projects currently on hold or on a protracted programme, and our 25-year old son now working and living independently, we are taking the opportunity to travel, teach, and visit extraordinary buildings and places. This Georgian townhouse, named the Sun Rain Rooms, is an unique building that opens its door once a year to Open House visitors.
