House of Panes is a striking reimagining of an Edwardian terraced home in Muswell Hill, London. The design masterfully balances the home's historic fabric with a bold, light-filled intervention, creating a contemporary living environment that celebrates both heritage and modernity.

Overlooking the South Park Gardens in Wimbledon, south London, this Edwardian house has been transformed in every possible way. Through a tactile and warm approach to massing and architectural detailing, this bold yet quietly resolving family home now enhances the character of the street and is a contemporary equivalent to the traditional brick homes along Kings Road. The client is a family of four with two young children who approached Matthew Giles Architects to develop designs to extend, remodel and refurbish their home. Having recently purchased a dilapidated building in a part of London they wanted to live in, the client saw an opportunity to create a truly bespoke family home. A schedule of spaces required was provided, and they expressed an interest in modifying the appearance of the building externally while improving the thermal efficiency of their detached home.

Creating a series of indoor and outdoor experiences that blend expansive space and an unconventional sectional arrangement, Matthew Giles Architects have reimagined a Victorian townhouse in a way that adds in everyday delight. Situated in Clapham Old Town the design reorders the ground and first floor layouts and adds a new open-plan kitchen and living space beneath an expansive 2-storey void. On entry to the house, the young family is given immediate axial views through the extended building footprint to the kitchen and main living space. The generously proportioned entrance gives way to the dining area which links together the front reception room and the kitchen.
