CREATING A HOME
As architects and heritage consultants, we intelligently create spaces that not only maintains and preserves a property’s history. This reinvention allows our clients to live, play, relax and enjoy their home. At a Grade I listed private residence in London, we designed a contemporary glazed extension to merge the needs for luxury and modern family living alongside restoring the beauty and character of a historic home.
PRIVATE HOUSE YORK
Making sense of this Grade II* listed building’s complex layout, we converted this property back to one family residence leading from a central staircase. This involved rationalising the Medieval, Georgian and Victorian spaces and reversing an insensitive 1970’s conversion which turned the property into three flats. The completed scheme created a high quality and modern family home whilst enhancing the unique character of the building.
LIVING HERITAGE
Understanding your site’s heritage unlocks it’s potential. By this care we achieve creative and innovative designs with sensitive change that secures its future.
From historic homes to new builds in a sensitive context, we offer effective guidance on how to achieve planning permission, conservation and listed building consents. Our combination of heritage advice, masterplanning and architecture provide a start-to-finish service for your project.
PRIVATE HOUSE LONDON
Purcell led and designed an outstanding scheme of restoration, alteration and extension to a Grade I listed townhouse. Renowned by Georgian architect Robert Taylor, we created a luxury home with a series of reception spaces and bedroom suites for the client, their family and guests.
A new roof pavillion also provides space for a multi-purpose media and garden room, wth terrace and wonderful views across London.
“We love unlocking the potential of a space, so it becomes a home everyone wants to enjoy.”

Purcell’s experience with residential buildings is both long-standing and in-depth. From creating masterplans to tailoring interiors, our dedicated team work on a range of building types. we are well places to help evolve an existing dwelling into a bespoke, individually crafted class-leading home of the highest standards. At Wildernesse House, fine craftmanship was married with ambitious masterplanning to transform the Georgian mansion into luxury private residences within a protected stately park.
WORLD CLASS DESIGN

Our team work with every aspect of a building, from preserving the shell to designing luxury bathroom and bedroom suites.

Our restoration and refurbishment of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in London created two penthouse suites and the interiors were finished to the highest standards of luxury.
BESPOKE INNOVATION
Sophisticated visualisations offer detailed projections of the finished project, years in advance. Offering advanced valuation tools for developers, this also offers client and design teams invaluable insights –advancing the complex, collaborative work across ambitious or complex buildings. Purcell’s work at this private London residence included uniting two duplex apartments with a three-storey extension and basement under the courtyard garden. These visualisations were invaluable to the client and design team working together to create finely crafted aesthetics with valuable finishes.
UNIQUE SOLUTIONS FOR UNIQUE SPACES
We create home environments that match clients’ rhythm and lifestyle, integrating state-of-the-art technologies with high specification materials. We often do this within a sensitive site whilst retaining the building’s story and character.
PRIVATE HOUSE HAMPSHIRE
Purcell led an outstanding transformation of this Grade II listed Victorian Gothic mansion into a stunning and luxurious family home. Our scheme included the sensitive restoration and refurbishment of the historic house and various listed outbuildings around the estate. We were also involved in a landscape masterplan to restore the historic estate as well as the addition of a stunning contemporary new pool house extension.
From large listed private houses to contemporary new build apartments, we integrate sustainability through reuse and innovative techniques. We focus on delivering complex planning consents in rural and urban settings whilst championing a home’s unique elements. Our expertise in sustainability is much learned from our work at Ledston Hall. The Grade I Listed building sits within a Grade II* registered Park and set within a 3000 acre estate. Much of the building, which incorporates a 12th century chapel, 16th, 17th century additions and adaptions has been vacant for several decades. Purcell repaired the historic building fabric and converedt the country house into several luxury residential properties which will be available to lease. The Hall became first Grade-I listed building in the UK to achieve Listed Building Consent Approval to replace its single-glazed, metal-framed, leaded windows with energy-efficient, slimline double glazed alternatives. The approval demonstrates that progressive energy-saving solutions are compatible with the conservation of historic fabric.
