Lowndes Square, Belgravia

Lowndes Square in Belgravia is renowned for its upmarket terraced properties. Our client acquired a Grade II listed former embassy building on the square and redeveloped it as nine high quality homes, from studio flats to larger apartments.

Our Role

We were commissioned to design all the mechanical, electrical, public health and lift services. As a listed building, it needed a particularly sensitive approach, and we worked very closely with the client and design team to keep the services unobtrusive.

Our subsequent site supervision verified that the standard and quality of the engineering installation did not compromise the building’s aesthetics.

The Outcome

Every property was fitted out to a very high standard, including comfort cooling to each home. For apartments bought off plan, we tailored the services to the buyers’ bespoke requirements.

The result is a sensitive conversion that brings modern comfort to a listed Belgravia building without detracting from its character.
