STUDIOCARVER

About
STUDIOCARVER is an architecture and design practice founded by Keith Carver. Our work ranges from commercial projects to individual homes and bespoke furniture. Across all sectors, from the thrill of engaging with a new design problem, to its detail, construction and completion, is a commitment to finding solutions that are right for the client, their brief and the surroundings. We believe the role of good design is to enhance environments for people. Our approach develops an architecture through observation and investigation; architecture that responds to material, light, environment, and most of all its users. We delight in finding innovations that make each project quietly extraordinary. At the same time we maintain always the core principles of sustainability and good design, ensuring our work remains functional and flexible. STUDIOCARVER encompasses over 15 years of experience in housing, offices, academic buildings and masterplanning. We offer a full range of architectural and design services, from site appraisals and concept designs to guiding complex schemes through the planning process and on to completion. We apply a rigorous eye to quality and detail but most important we pride ourselves on our relationships with our clients. We understand that true success is achieved through client satisfaction and put utmost importance on client engagement through all stages of the design process.

Hampstead Way House

In partnership with Daniel Farshi Architects
www.danielfarshi.co.uk

This project includes the complete refurbishment and extension of an un-modernised Grade II Listed Arts and Crafts home in the Hampstead Garden Suburb in North West London. We sought to return the house to its original glory through the careful restoration of its original features, a sensitive extension and internal alterations.

A 1960 garage was demolished and replaced with a new kitchen and dining area. The extension was constructed in a style and brick matching the original house, satisfying the stringent Hampstead Garden Trust development guidelines. Inside, the new extension surprises and delights with a vaulted ceiling extending up to a large sliding skylight. Hidden from the street and surrounding properties, the skylight brings expansive amounts of natural light into the dining and kitchen area.

The project also includes reconfigured bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas with custom designed built in storage, wardrobes and bookcases throughout the home.
