Pinner Hill, Harrow 

The client of this project in the Pinner Hill area had previously worked with a surveyor to establish the options for a refurbishment and extension to the existing building on site. It became clear that the general modernisation and refurbishment of the existing building together with the construction of the approved extensions of the property was not financially viable and that the benefits of the amendments were in no relation to the high cost it attracted.  
 
ROA were appointed to submit a new planning application for a new build dwelling, more apt for the needs of the family and their contemporary lifestyle, and the requirements of a sustainable, adaptable building.  
 
The building follows a traditional form of pitched roofs of varying heights and ridge levels, finished with classy, clay roof tiles. For the external walls the design envisaged recognisable high quality facing brick and render finishes. Dark stained timber shingles were added as a softer facade element and unique variation to the more traditional, hung tile facades in the area. Skylights above the kitchen area, a tall window element throughout all floors, central to the main stair and a large window element in the gable wall add to the subtle features of this building, which enhance the conditions of the internal spaces, whilst blending in with the well composed facade.
