Planning Sub – North End Road, Fulham
AUA has submitted a planning application for a mixed-use scheme in Fulham. The proposal retains the existing retail units and creates a new build residential scheme, consisting of 8No. units, over the top of the existing building. The residential fenestration design, will in part, aim to proportionally respond to neighbouring properties whilst functionally responding to the rooms they serve.

Start on Site – Avenue Road

New build house completed in Esher
The concept of this house from inception was in drawing natural light from the brighter and warmer southern front elevation through to the more shaded spaces to the rear, where the resultant has been two very different elevational design treatments.
Completion – Couture House, Kensington
The Couture House, designed by AUA, nears completion. The project modifies an existing end of terrace house in Kensington by converting the previous garage into a simple & modern side extension over 3 floors. A frameless glass corner window reflects the double height interior space of the entrance and a recessed vertical column of glazing addresses the change of material on the side elevation.
