THE PROPERTY The development – Lisgar Terrace in West Kensington – commenced in 1927 and had very definite Arts and Crafts influences. Last refurbished in 1971, the development was tired and in need of a refresh. Southern Housing Group (SHG) got planning for a major refurbishment. We were brought in to do the full internal specification for the private sale element of the scheme. SHG was a fantastic client to have – open-minded and willing to be brave.


THE CLIENT


Southern Housing Group (formerly The Samuel Lewis Housing Trust) is one of southern England’s oldest and largest housing associations. Philanthropist Samuel Lewis left a vast sum of money when he died in 1901 to set up a charitable foundation to provide housing for the poor. It provides more than 30,000 homes for more than 77,000 people.


THE BRIEF


The challenge SHG set was to give them an interior design scheme that reflects the heritage and the original nature of the development. This was not luxury housing, so while the selling values of the new private units will be very much in a luxury category by today’s standards, they were originally designed as social housing and the scale of the overall scheme and the internal space planning reflects this.
