Owned by a high-class businesswoman, this penthouse is filled with light, high-end modern design, and uniquely amazing views.

SHH’s proposal is twofold comprising the preservation of the historic value of the main dwelling and the reconstruction of the existing mews house (which was added later and dates from the early 2000’s) located at the rear of the site. The proposed elevation of the mews house draws inspiration from the site’s immediate surroundings and will remain in keeping with the typology of the conservation area. The proposal seeks to unite the streetscape by introducing a mansard roof to restore the roof line along the mews and to revamp the façade in fair-faced stock brick which is typical of the area. The two volumes (main house and mews) are currently linked via a steep staircase at basement level, offering no visual connection between the two buildings and making access challenging…

Tasked with enhancing Lynsey’s home-studio with its 100% recycled Renzo Furniture, Daval created a custom hideaway kitchen with ample storage to optimise and support the creative process. Designed to harness her style of consultative, high focus work, and introduce the restorative qualities of wood in the workplace, Renzo introduces the subtleties of nature without impact to the environment. Lynsey Ford of Lynsey Ford Design says, “I try to minimise my consumption, looking to reuse and fix where possible, and so when making purchases I try to buy for longevity. The longer a product lasts, the smaller its environmental impact will be, which is why I turned to Daval for my own project – a new Renzo furniture scheme for my interior design studio for Lynsey Ford Design. I selected Renzo…

It’s now not so much about bringing the outside in, or inside out, but a seamless transition that works best. Creating more of a natural flow between the two. This will not only increase space but help give a mental boost. Nature is a medicine for the mind, and its calming balm has never been more craved. A few ways to create this more seamless transition we find are textiles, accessories, and of course plants. In terms of textiles, it’s cushions and throws galore! We now have a new range of outdoor cushions and even some outdoor recycled rugs which really help to add a softness and comfort to your outdoor spaces, especially in the early evening. Even bringing non ‘outdoor’ items out can really feel cathartic; items like vases…

How did you go from studying at a business school to working with design? In school already, I was mainly interested in art, photography and graphics. I tried out a lot and after graduating from high school I did an internship with a well-known people photographer and one in graphic design. At the same time, I was also passionate about mathematics. In the end, I didn’t study design, but business administration, and yet, for my work I have circled back to the core field of design. The fact that I didn’t study design allows me to be free of rules in my head when designing. I don’t follow rules because I don’t know them: this makes me flexible in my designs-independent. Working without rules and learning by doing; initially my…
