"However, this renovation in London had one major advantage right from the start: Although the impressive town house is located in a so-called "Conservation Area," it was not classified as a Listed Building, which made the renovation work considerably easier. "We were able to renovate the house from top to bottom without any major restrictions," recalls Rigby. "We also had a very dedicated site manager. As a result, the entire construction process went extremely smoothly.""
"The first step was to change the layout of the old house. To open up the living area, existing double doors were removed and replaced with a glass partition wall, flooding the entire foyer with natural light. The kitchen was also given a full makeover and now shines in a warm butter yellow. In the dining room, Rigby added a sand-colored wall unit that reveals a cobalt blue bar when it's opened."
A London town house benefited from not being a Listed Building despite its location in a Conservation Area, allowing unrestricted renovation. The construction proceeded smoothly under a dedicated site manager, enabling a complete top-to-bottom makeover. The clients, a young American couple, wanted an airy, bright home with vibrant colors and abundant natural light. The layout was altered to increase light, with double doors replaced by a glass partition that floods the foyer. The kitchen was remodeled in warm butter yellow, and a sand-colored dining wall unit conceals a cobalt blue bar. Warm colors and a sun motif define the aesthetics.
