Squire and Partners have completed a new four storey mews house on Lowndes Close in Belgravia. Designs for the 4-bedroom home draw inspiration from the context and history of the grand residential buildings found in the locality expressed in a crisp contemporary manner. A palette of natural materials including brick, stone, and painted timber and metalwork are elegantly detailed to harmonize with neighbouring properties, while internally a carefully rationalised plan, maximising all usable space, provides generous and adaptable living areas suitable for modern family life.

A new basement provides a family room and utility room, leaving the ground floor clear for a light and airy kitchen and separate dining room. Siting the stairs at the rear of the house on a cross axis has enabled natural light to also flood in from the rear. As a nod to tradition, the first floor, with exceptional floor to ceiling heights and French doors opening out to balconies overlooking the mews, accommodates the piano nobile, a drawing room that takes the whole width and depth of the plan. The remainder of the floors accommodate bed and bathrooms with a lift providing effortless access from top to bottom.
