Architects and Engineers in North Kensington
Contemporary architecture and engineering for North Kensington's Victorian terraced streets, from first feasibility to a finished project.
Living and Building in North Kensington
North Kensington's character comes from rapid Victorian expansion, rows of modest terraced cottages rather than grand stucco townhouses, anchored by the sweeping grounds of Kensal Green Cemetery, inspired by Paris's Pere-Lachaise and founded in 1833.
Diagram X brings confident, contemporary AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) into a part of the borough built for working London, not aristocratic estates.
Planning in North Kensington
The borough has designated North Kensington an Area for Regeneration, reflecting its different character and socio-economic context compared with areas further south, alongside established conservation areas including Kensal Green Cemetery itself.
RBKC's assessment here weighs regeneration ambition against protecting the terraced streetscape that survives.
Refurbishing in North Kensington
Behind modest Victorian terraced cottage facades, Diagram X opens up compact, compartmentalised interiors into minimalist, light-filled space, honest materials replacing decades of piecemeal subdivision.
The terraced streetscape stays intact, while what's rebuilt inside becomes unmistakably contemporary.
Construction in North Kensington
A genuine mix of Victorian terraces, postwar estates, and active regeneration sites makes sequencing and site-specific assessment essential on nearly every scheme here.
