Rees Architects project

Grove Retreat

Rees Architects transformed this late Victorian townhouse in East Dulwich to harmonise with its garden, balancing period charm with sustainable, modern living. The redesign reoriented the layout, centering family life around a light-filled kitchen and dining space. Period features like plasterwork and floorboards were restored, while new materials—lime plasters, ash flooring, and sustainable terrazzo worktops—ensure durability. Thoughtful detailing and a timeless palette create a serene, functional home, blending tradition with modernity.
