Residential Architect Services
Rodić Davidson Architects has over fifteen years’ experience in delivering contemporary, beautifully crafted homes for private and developer clients. We have a growing body of residential architecture work including high-end residential designs and extensive experience in creating family homes and luxury residences. For each project, we take time to explore the brief and to understand your objectives. We seek to establish an iterative design dialogue throughout project development. Our designs seek to respond and add to the brief and to create spaces that are a joy to occupy and mindful of the environment.
What is Residential Architecture?
Residential architecture is the design and construction of the spaces in which we live. Over the years we have had experience as a residential architect through of all manner of residential typologies in London and across the UK, including:
– Central London town houses,
-New build apartments,
-Family homes,
-Co-living schemes,
-Micro apartments (‘pocket-living’)
-Country houses,
-High end residential,
-Luxury residences,
-Mansions,
-And even house boats.
Our approach to design remains consistent no matter what the residential typology: we seek to create joyful, healthy, inspiring spaces that are sustainable and sensitive to the context. If you’re a developer, we seek to understand the brand, investment objectives and culture of the company. If you’re an individual owner-occupier, we work with you to understand the priorities, concerns and objectives for the project. We take time to understand the brief and, by so doing, develop residential architecture which becomes a home.
Our Approach – How Rodić Davidson can help?
No matter the typology or scale of the project, successful preparation requires the careful development of a project brief. Sometimes clients come to us with a project brief already in place and sometimes we assist in the preparation. A good strategic brief will define the project objectives and milestones. This can focus on what you’d like to achieve through the design of your home, thinking in terms of how you will use the space now and in the future. There will be other constraints you will need to discuss from the outset such as time and budget. Rodić Davidson can assist in formalising your brief for the project and, thereafter, can bring our expertise to realise your residential project objectives. Whatever the brief, and whatever the size, Rodić Davidson will always strive to bring the same skills and way of thinking to the project.
Our Awards
We have received prestigious awards for our residential projects, including an RIBA South East Regional Award in 2016 for our North Vat residential project in Dungeness. Central to the award-winning scheme, located on a Site of Special Interest in Dungeness, were enthusiastic clients seeking to break away from conventional layout and form. The windows and roof lights were thought of as ‘paintings’, arranged around moments of pause within the plan to frame particular views valued by our Client and track the movement of sunlight which transforms the spaces during the day.

Sartor House, Chelsea
This property forms half of a semi-detached pair of villa style houses in Chelsea, requiring a complete reconfiguration of a traditional, fragmented townhouse layout into a light-filled family home. This was achieved through the introduction of double height spaces, interconnecting levels, strategically placed glazed interventions and a paired back interior palette, giving the luxury residences a light, elemental feel. Read more about our experience as a London Residential Architect in our Chelsea project case study.
Corner Cottage, Wimbledon
This unique corner terrace of nineteenth century residences located in a Conservation Architecture Area in Wimbledon presented challenges that were overcome due to the tenacity, skill and care of our client throughout the entire process. The cellular nature of the house involved a radical rethink of the spatial organization to achieve the desired living spaces. Read more about our Wimbledon project.
Townhouse, Pimlico
Located on an island site in the heart of the Pimlico Conservation Area, this double fronted house had an unusual small side yard and under pavement vaults in a state of disrepair. The proposal sought to increase and reconfigure the spaces to provide a functional family home with more area. The infilling of the outside space at basement level and incorporation of the vaults into an open plan living space led to the decision to create a roof extension holding an indoor-outdoor space transformed by a retractable glazed roof.
