June 2020 - Hub |

Aldington Manor Progress

Works are progressing well at Aldington Manor with the house nearing completion and the Director’s hoping to be operating from the Midlands HUB office from August 2020.

@hub_architects_and_designers and @simon.watkins.3720 have been working on a proposal for new homes on this small former farmyard site in a semi rural setting. At the heart of this proposal is the preservation and re-use of a handsome stone barn. The character of the barn is saved by preserving the setting and retaining existing features such as the original feeding troughs in the yard. The proposed new housing adjacent to the barn has been laid out to create a farmyard sense of place and proposed building details and materials follow the vernacular details characteristic of the rural country. #ruralsetting #farmyard #barnarchitecture #barninspo #rurallife #countryliving #midlandsarchitect

Hub gained planning approval for this home in harrow, Hertfordshire. The new gable has been designed to be in keeping with the Arts and Crafts tradition and sympathetic to the style of the original house, while the internal reconfiguration provides a sustainable dwelling for a multi generational family.

Hub recently gained planning approval for the restoration of this beautiful end bay of a 17th century tythe barn and a change of use to an annex.

Hub has completed the conversion of the end bay of a 17th century Tythe barn near Broadway, Worcestershire. 2 planning and listed building applications were approved for the restoration and change of use from garden store to habitable annex. The barn has been gently restored with respect for the original fabric and the addition of some sensitive modern features. The roof and walls have been fully insulated, ensuring that the barn is comfortable both in Summer heat and Winter. @katespenceinteriors @simon.watkins.3720 #listedbarnconversion #tythebarn #conservationarchitecture #annex #sustainableinteriors #sustainablehomes @sykescottages

At Hub we love the opportunity to deliver a project through all RIBA stages 1-8. There is nothing more satisfying than ensuring the tiniest interior details are fine tuned, with the perfect setting out of bathrooms and kitchens. This grade 2 listed house in Worcestershire was completely refurbished and upgraded with attention to details, that sat respectfully in the existing 1820 Classical Regency Architecture. @lefroybrooksofficial @katespenceinteriors #classicinterior #georgianarchitecture #traditionalbathroom @ribawestmids #midlandsarchitect #worcestershire

Hub gained Planning Approval for an extension to an Arts and Crafts house in West Sussex. We are looking forward to taking the project to the site stages and working with @northcotbrick to achieve carefully considered brick details with sensitively selected bricks that will give the extension an authentic presence. #conservationarchitecture #ruralhouses #finedetails #brickwork #windowdetails #westsussex @simon.watkins.3720 @katespenceinteriors

HUB have gained another Listed Building Consent, for a Grade11* listed house in the Royal Hospital Conservation Area, in Chelsea. These illustrations are taken from the original design by the architect Edward William Godwin. The building was constructed in 1878-80 for Frank Miles, a well-known society portrait painter, whose 2nd Floor studio remains largely intact, with a large double height window rising into the roof space.

The house is part of the so called ‘Tite Street Studios’ which are cited in the Conservation Area Statement as ‘probably the most important group of buildings in the area, second only to the Royal Hospital’. The building is significant and is protected as an Heritage asset as defined within the NPPF.

The Approved alterations are minor but will upgrade the building, ensuring the comfort and well-being of its occupants for future generations. #conservationarchitecture #conservationarea #chelseaarchitecture @chelseadesignquarter @chelseaartsclub @simon.watkins.3720 #ewgodwin #frankmilesartist
