The Coach House, East Dulwich

We undertook a complete transformation of an old garage to create a calm, contemporary family home, hidden unexpectedly down a quiet track.

We opted for a palette of simple materials such as wood, concrete and steel with the aim of creating a modern, minimal but warm home that suits our family.

"Grand Designs’ Kevin McCloud christened Rupert the ‘master of illumination’ in its House of the Year series in 2018 and this stands to good reason: despite facing north-west, there is nothing gloomy about this abode.

A generous skylight in the double-height atrium floods the entry and staircase with southern light. This source is amplified into the windowless ground-floor study and the family bathroom via wall panels of reeded glass."
