Regent's Park Townhouse
A 19th Century listed period house that has been sympathetically restored to its former glory, highlighting and expressing all its period charm whilst making the house function for modern family life. The house hosts many experimental pieces of joinery, fixtures, lighting, sanitaryware, glazing and furniture. These were exclusively designed and built by Undercover Architecture and partnering artisans, sculptors, and makers. The interior design and art direction was exclusively undertaken by Estelle Chandresinghe.
The location of the house and its close proximity to the railway lines was used as inspiration, embracing the 19th Century Victorian age and British Industrial expansion in train travel, and the 19th Century architectural qualities associated with during this era. The use of steel in architecture was prevalent in these times, with its detailing of stations such as Kings Cross, Paddington, and structures like Crystal Palace were studied to inspire and articulate the design process.
