“Although I had worked on low-energy homes before this, I had never lived in one. It’s been really nice to experience the comfort and warmth it offers.” The first conversation we had with Ben Ridley at his home in north-west London was a memorable one. When we visited him in 2022 for Issue No.4 of our magazine, the director of Architecture for London (a practice that builds “healthy buildings that are a joy to inhabit”) discussed the importance of retrofitting. “There are many small things people can do to make their houses greener,” he advised, such as fitting one’s letterbox with an airtight seal. “Go for the low-hanging fruit first.” Now, having recently returned with our film team, we can attest that our second encounter was equally inspiring…

I have a north-facing garden and I love that the patio by the door is always in the shade 😆. A nice cool spot to sit in, or for the kids to play in, even in a heat wave.

Everything I could want from a home, energy efficient, clean air, (very important in London, even if Uxbridge doesn’t think so) and quietly beautiful. The biggest surprise is the curtains, so unexpected yet work….

"People aren't going to accept a low energy retrofit if you lose the character or joy in your home". Having been lucky enough to live in Edwardian homes and knowing what they look like internally, I don't see how the character of the house was preserved at all? A really wonderful job was done with the insulation and air filtering technology which is the best aspect of retrofitting, but I have to ask what is the obsession with retrofits that completely change the inside of Edwardian and Victorian London homes, to the point they are unrecognisable? To his credit obviously a lot more thought and consideration went into this one to make it more economic, but the interior does look like any modern minimalist apartment!

I kind of like the design but it is in the wrong space, imo. I completely agree with you...

Beautiful designed apartment, space of tranquility! The CH26 dining chairs, which finish do they have? Oiled oak? decision well made ;) Your eye for detail is spot on.

Clearly illustrates what can be achieved with good design and quality materials. The pallet is perfect. Eco and sustainable yet an 'old' original building not lost in the updating, Stunning. And in a good area of London. Thank you for sharing. Lots for others to learn from.

Can’t they just build new modern house? Why butcher 1906 building and destroy yet another piece of history. So vulgar.

Not vulgar in any way, google the word. It’s repurposed a house that doesn’t work in this decade. It’s also their property they can do whatever they want, it’s not a listed or protected monument. Calm your drama.

Sure not vulgar at all and really ”eco friendly” to tear down something that has lasted over 100 years and use resources to rebuild it.
@AminTheMystic
@AminTheMystic 9 месяцев назад
@@ttp4059 Yep, not vulgar at all. It's a great conversion. This is how such properties are still reused and not torn down. You clearly lack any taste, tack and class.
