ANGLE’s second project in Studley Park, Kew, Fernhurst is brought to you by the same team behind Fenwick— Edition Office and Eckersley Garden Architecture. Due to planning restrictions, this is one of the last remaining development sites located in a Studley Park side street, yet offers the rare advantage of being only 300 metres from Kew Junction. Comprising just seventeen apartments and three homes on a one acre-site, this is a low-density proposal characterised by generous setbacks and oversized gardens.
Cultivating a sense of sanctuary, the residences at Fernhurst are seamlessly intertwined with nature’s ebb and flow. The brick facade serves as a backdrop for an abundance of flourishing vegetation while establishing a tangible feeling of permanence – as if the building has existed here for many years.
Flooded with natural light, each apartment is distinguished by lofty, open-plan living areas, extending seamlessly onto to verdant outdoor spaces. Throughout, the materiality is warm, tactile yet innately pared-back, engaging in a harmonious dialogue with the architectural fabric. Functional yet generous; ethereal yet solid, the residences of Fernhurst place lifestyle and connection at the forefront of every design decision.
