Tessuto designed and oversaw the major reconstruction of this Georgian cottage in Chelsea, including the excavation of a double storey basement below the property and the addition of a 2nd floor. This more than doubled the original GIA of the property to 2800 square feet. Space planning for the project was a challenge given the narrowness of the site, but we were able to introduce a central curving modernist staircase to act as the spine of the building and provide access to all levels. We used a palette of high quality natural materials and bespoke joinery, accented with luxurious fabrics and wall coverings in strong colours to create a unique classic contemporary interior style.
