Architects and Engineers in Kew
Contemporary architecture and engineering for victorian villas, historic cottages and mature garden settings in Kew, from first feasibility to a finished project.
Living and Building in Kew
Kew grew around its historic Green, once a cluster of houses used by nobility for short royal stays, with small 18th and 19th-century cottages still lining the Green's eastern end today.
Diagram X brings genuinely modern AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) into a village that expanded through the Victorian era along streets like Kew Road and Sandycombe Road, mixing fine detached houses in mature gardens with later terraces and semi-detached homes.
Planning in Kew
The Kew Green Conservation Area protects the historic combination of open space and high-quality buildings around the Green, from grand houses to the intimate narrow streets of cottages and allotments at its eastern end.
Each scheme is assessed against the specific heritage character of whichever conservation area it falls within, rather than a single standard across Kew.
Refurbishing in Kew
Behind period facades, Diagram X strips back dated, compartmentalised layouts in favour of open, minimalist interiors with honest materials and broad glazing.
The historic frontage stays untouched, while the space behind it becomes something unmistakably contemporary.
Construction in Kew
Conservation area restrictions, mature garden settings, and the area's proximity to protected open space demand careful sequencing on nearly every scheme.
Diagram X runs structural engineering, groundworks, and site logistics as one coordinated process, protecting historic character while new space takes shape behind it.
