Location: Highgate, London

Nestled at the bottom of a quiet cul-de-sac behind Highgate’s Southwood Lane is 13 Kingsley Place, a 2 bedroom bungalow built as part of a larger award-winning 60s development. The family with their keen appreciation of design loved the modernist lines of their 60s courtyard house, but were frustrated by the limitations of the aged building fabric, size and a layout that ignored the stunning London views to the rear.
The house is executed in a restrained palate of natural materials. The result is that light becomes the fifth member of the Sanders household, changing the way the house feels at different times of the day, with the weather and the seasons.
