The design approach catered for a sensitive installation of a services ‘shoe box’ within an existing heritage listed boot making factory circa 1900.  Textured recycled materials, offset by the implementation of sophisticated finishes, the box floats across the original floor and dissects the floor plate as the divider of the space so that the entire volume can be appreciated from within.

“I cannot recommend Wolveridge Architects highly enough. Fully alive to the brief from the outset, Jerry worked collaboratively to present us with ideas that took us way beyond our original imaginings. Working within the tight constraints of both limited space and a heritage protected house, Jerry delivered a seamless melding of both old and new that magically accentuates the best of both. The overall design is masterful. The in situ concrete table is, quite simply, incredible and a genius response to our very first discussion. The small details - a floating concrete step; an exposed, internal section of nineteenth century brickwork (to name but two of many) are testament to the considered and inspired thinking. The project was managed brilliantly by Brett and the rest of the team and executed with minimal fuss and to the highest standards. Every question and concern was responded to thoughtfully and with an eye on the budget. The result is stunning. it is a beautiful space to live in. It is a beautiful home.”
