MWA’s proposals for a property within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea has received unanimous planning consent. The site, a mews building located in the Brompton Conservation Area, was developed as stables for an adjacent property on Brompton Square built in the early 1820s. The application site was redeveloped in the 1960s after suffering irreparable bomb damage during WWII.
The existing building has little architectural or historical merit with fenestration and apertures that are not in keeping with the streetscape or character of the conservation area. Our proposals look to demolish and rebuild a new two storey dwellinghouse with a subterranean basement.
A material palette has been selected to match the character of the street including London stock brick, cast stone and a natural slate roof. The front elevation will feature Juliet balconies and timber louvres for privacy.
