The memories of the family are used as a conscious architectural driver throughout both houses. Kitchen as a social space and sitting by the open fire distort the two new ‘hearths’ (one for cooking one for fire) into non-orthogonal shapes suggesting uses yet open to appropriation. In the new home the dining table is given priority of place and a ritual character. The Mews house’s facades take their key from the Flemish-bond brickwork walls of the Victorian House. The extrovert front façade receives the ‘projecting brick’ layer, which oscillates in appearance depending on natural light conditions.
