Grade II listed building renovation and extension in Notting Hill. EMR successfully managed to get planning for a basement under the front pavement and make alteration to this Grade II listed building. The client wanted to create 2 bedrooms with maximum storage space in the top floor which was a real challenge that we achieved. We also dealt with the Council, the Heritage statements, the arboricultural specialists, the Party wall, structural etc. The house was featured in the July edition of Living etc. https://www.livingetc.com/features/pastel-power

External rear extension and basement.

Este inmenso sótano cobró calidez forrando con madera de roble natural las paredes. De esta manera se absorve mejor el sonido de la pantalla de cine oculta en el techo. Al fondo, pusimos una cocina de apoyo para la sala de cine. This huge basement gained warmth by lining the walls with natural oak wood. In this way, the sound of the hidden cinema screen in the ceiling is better absorbed. In the background, we put a support kitchen for the movie theater.

BASEMENT CINEMA, POOL ROOM AND WINE BAR IN WEST LONDON We created this generous space in the basement of a detached family home. Our clients were keen to have a private area for chilling out, watching films and most importantly, throwing parties! The palette of colours we chose here calmly envelop you as you relax. Then later when the party is in full swing, and the lights are up, the colours take on a more vibrant quality. MOOD LIGHTING, ATMOSPHERE AND DRAMA Mood lighting plays an important role in this basement. The two natural light sources are a walk-on glass floor in the room above, and the open staircase leading up to it. Apart from that, this was a dark space which gave us the perfect opportunity to do something really dramatic with the lighting. Most of the lights are on separate circuits, giving plenty of options in terms of mood scenes. The pool table is overhung by three brass and amber glass pendants, which we commissioned from one of our trade suppliers. Our beautifully curated artwork is tastefully lit with downlights and picture lights. LEDs give a warm glow around the perimeters of the media unit, wine rack and bar top. CONTEMPORARY PRIVATE MEMBERS CLUB FEEL The traditional 8-foot American pool table was made bespoke in our selection of finishes. As always, we made sure there was a full cue’s length all the way around the playing area. We designed the bar and wine rack to be custom made for this project. The natural patina of the brass worktop shows every mark and stain, which might sound impractical but in reality looks quirky and timeless. The bespoke bar cabinetry was finished in a chestnut brown lacquer spray paint. On this project we delivered our full interior design service, which includes concept design visuals, a rigorous technical design package and a full project coordination and installation service.
