Award 澳门王中王 London Award 2024
The name comes from the fact this is the second house on the same street in Camberwell by the architects Knox Bhavan. The project has two aspects: the conservation of an unlisted building, and a creative addition at the rear, replacing a poorly built but substantial Victorian extension. It was praised by the jury as well-built, innovatively designed and interesting.
In the restoration, all possibilities for thermal upgrade have been employed, including micro double glazing to windows, and improvements to floors and ceilings. A successful deep retrofit and contemporary extension in a conservation area, it has future-proofed the Victorian villa house with energy saving technology, and is sensitively considered to serve its owners’ needs into later life.
