Guided tour

Herbert Paradise

residence

Herbert Paradise transforms a mid-terrace home into a sustainable oasis. This retrofit features an open-plan ground floor connecting to the garden, eco-friendly systems, and raw materials. With high ceilings, clay plaster, and recycled joinery, it shows how sustainable design creates joyful spaces. A garden studio completes this urban refurbishment balancing comfort and environmental responsibility.

Lexi Cinema

A contemporary extension to the Lexi Cinema, providing a 2nd screen. The building is a composition of brick and stainless steel; a nod to the parapets of surrounding terraces and reflecting the ever-changing sky above.
