Red ghost

Posted on Fri, 5 Dec 2014 by midcenturyjo

Like a ghostly shadow echoing the surrounding homes the Kew House by Piercy & Company is formed by two volumes containing four bedrooms and living areas set back from the street behind the retained 19th century stable wall. The weathering steel shell, solid and sturdy yet at the same time hinting at decay and change, references the autumnal hues of nearby Kew Garden. A thoroughly modern family home (love the children’s spaces up in the attic) with echoes and ripples of the past.

Love the house, the built in cabinets and the Corten steel exterior!

The huge cabinets are cool!

What an unusual, beautiful house! As said above, the built-ins and the steel exterior are lovely!
