Primrose Hill House The key to this courtyard house is the relationship between the living spaces and the private rear garden. This is enhanced with a large picture window in the kitchen and full-height sliding timber doors in the living area. Our scheme removes unsympathetic piecemeal alterations from the last 60 years, whilst creating open-plan living spaces internally. Photo by Christian Brailey
