Hampstead is affluent, listed Georgian and Victorian villas. The dominant stock — georgian and victorian villas, listed buildings — has specific constraints and opportunities for loft conversion drawings. Side returns sit better on bay-fronted Victorian terraces than on detached 1930s semis. Mansards work where the existing roofscape supports them. We design to the block, not the brochure.
