Private Houses

Buschow Henley's private houses emerge out of a particular circumstance – from the site, from the brief and from our thoughts about constructing in a responsible way.

We are particularly interested in the way a family might live in a home, about how it could change over time, and in the relationship between inside and outside, building and land, house and garden. We are also keen to integrate environmental ideas that will endorse a particular way of life. Ultimately it is the quality of construction materials, light and air which will most tangibly affect the experience of dwelling.

The practice has designed apartments and houses. The Phelan Barker House designed for a young couple in Essex was short-listed for an RIBA Award for Architecture in 2001. The Barge Murphy Apartment, one of 50 units in our mixed-use development Shepherdess Walk, was featured in the Architectural Review also in 2001. St. Monica’s Penthouse constructed on top of E.W. Pugin’s Grade II listed Board School in Hoxton Square was published in Architecture Today February 2005 and True Principles, The journal of the Pugin Society in Summer 2005. Two Houses in Hackney, one built for an architect, the other for an art-collector, was published in Architecture Today in July 2006 and received a Hackney Design Award in 2007.
