A Tudor Revival mansion is renovated in keeping with its heritage and its neighbours – interiors are reworked for modern living now and into the future

This bedroom has got it going on with floor to ceiling glass optimising intimate sea views and cool concrete floors that amp up the guitar solos

This house sidles up to its noisy street frontage, creating spacious courtyard living at rear – the acoustic front fence/facade blocks unwanted sound

Exotic materials and a subtle grey and white palette help transfer a boxy rear space into a contemporary family and entertainer's kitchen

Light, nature, and water set the stage for this minimalist sculptural new home, which includes two storeys and a full basement 

Combining existing spaces and throwing out the bath creates a functional bathroom for three teenage boys featuring a modern twist on a rustic air

This kitchen cabinetry's detailing, column finishes, panelling and curved character features bring it into step with the existing character home

A solid wood round table that King Arthur would have been proud of is just one feature in this heart-of-the-kingdom kitchen/dining space

The powder room is the perfect place for dramatic impact that won't be missed by family or friends – here, a black embossed feature tile creates a theatrical backdrop 

This eye-catching suspended vanity unit with double sink features bronzed glass doors and glossy lacquered finishes, creating subtle reflections

This could be a confusing instruction to a child in this home, where a generous light courtyard brings nature into the heart of the interior 

Renovation of 1930s property's kitchen preserves the home's original character while creating a modern and functional family space
