Why Herne Hill

Herne Hill's housing pattern shapes the design

Herne Hill is Victorian villas around Brockwell Park. The dominant stock — victorian villas, edwardian terraces — 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.
