THE DAME
Very excited to finally be able to share this project with you, featured in
The Dame had a clear instruction for us: don’t ruin my soul. An old building with age and heritage worth protecting, she asked to be listened to rather than reimagined. We obliged. The existing room configuration was retained entirely, preserving the spatial logic and character that made her worth saving in the first place.
Where intervention was needed, a walk-in robe, an ensuite, one bedroom was sensitively converted rather than demolished. A new addition accommodating an extra bedroom and bathroom was introduced to meet contemporary living requirements, but designed to defer to the original fabric rather than compete with it.
The Dame remains herself, restored, respected, and quietly remarkable.
