Brick<\/a> garden walls conceal the Walled Courtyard house<\/a>, which local architecture studio Inglis Badrashi Loddo has completed on a historic square in Kennington, south London<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The single-storey home occupies a 63-square-metre infill site that originally formed part of the garden of a Grade-II listed Georgian townhouse, located on the south-east corner of the 18th-century Cleaver Square in Kennington.<\/p>\n

Commissioned by the owners of the Georgian townhouse, the brief was to create a compact and accessible dwelling filled with natural light, separate from the original property.<\/p>\n

According to Inglis Badrashi Loddo<\/a> (IBLA), it is the first new house to be built on the square in over 175 years, meaning it had to\u00a0meet strict planning conditions.<\/p>\n

IBLA hid the structure behind brick boundary walls, which are reconstructions of the original home’s walled garden.<\/p>\n

“The site is very compact, completely enclosed and inward-looking \u2013 our main goal was to create a bright and light-filled home that felt expansive and generous, despite the constraints,” IBLA director Kim Loddo told Dezeen.<\/p>\n

“While the site had recently been used as a car parking area, historically the land was enclosed by brick walls, and our decision to reinstate this perimeter was driven by a desire to maintain a connection with the history of the site as a walled garden,” Loddo said.<\/p>\n

A combination of reclaimed and new London stock brick was used to reconstruct the perimeter walls.<\/p>\n

The walls were completed without any windows in order for the site to read as a continuous garden wall from the street.<\/p>\n
