In Wimbledon, Gregory Phillips Architects has delivered projects ranging from a striking contemporary extension on Alan Road to a full refurbishment and basement extension at Lampton House Close, in the heart of Wimbledon Village, part of a portfolio built over more than 30 years of designing exceptional private homes. See our Wimbledon project here.
Our approach is shaped by a close understanding of how families live, and by the particular character of Wimbledon itself, a mix of Victorian and Edwardian properties, generous plots and proximity to Wimbledon Common that calls for extensions sensitive to their setting.
Every commission is guided personally from concept through to completion, working with local contractors and consultants experienced in Merton’s planning requirements and in restoring the borough’s period homes.
If you are planning a project in Wimbledon, a new build, a significant renovation or a carefully considered extension, we would be pleased to discuss your ideas, even if your plans are still taking shape.
Wimbledon Architects
Wimbledon is one of South West London’s most distinctive neighbourhoods, known internationally for its tennis heritage as well as for its combination of village character, parkland and grand Victorian homes. For families drawn to suburban living, strong schools and easy access to open space, it remains one of the city’s most desirable places to live.
The architectural character here is defined by Victorian and Edwardian properties, many set on generous plots with mature gardens. Proximity to Wimbledon Common and the surrounding parkland adds to the appeal, and the area retains a strong sense of community while remaining well connected to central London.
We have completed a number of projects across Wimbledon that reflect this character. On Alan Road, we extended a large Victorian property with a bold, contemporary addition, rather than attempting to replicate the original architecture, it introduced frameless glass facades, floating beams and an external reflecting pool, creating a striking dialogue between old and new. The project was later shortlisted for a Grand Designs Award and a RIBA Award. See our Wimbledon project here.
At Lampton House Close, in the heart of Wimbledon Village and close to Wimbledon Common, we carried out a full refurbishment and basement extension, modernising and enlarging an historic Arts & Crafts property while preserving the character that gives it its charm. The close is a short walk from 22 Parkside, the Grade II*-listed house Richard Rogers designed for his parents in the late 1960s, a reminder that this corner of Wimbledon has long attracted exceptional residential architecture.
These projects reflect a familiar challenge in Wimbledon: opening up the compartmentalised layouts typical of Victorian and Edwardian homes to create open, flowing family spaces, introducing contemporary kitchens and bathrooms, and adding basement accommodation where additional space is needed.
Planning in Wimbledon is generally supportive of well-considered residential projects. We have built a strong working relationship with Merton Borough Council over many years, and work with a trusted network of contractors and specialists experienced in both period restoration and contemporary residential design.
In Wimbledon, our studio offers the full range of architectural services, with involvement from concept design and planning consents through to construction information and house styling.
