Having moved from a substantial loft apartment to a Victorian terrace, the clients were keen to recapture the open sense of space and light their former home had offered. The brief called for an open space that could be adapted for either entertaining, dining or relaxing simply by moving loose furniture. To achieve this, the kitchen was moved back into the centre of the house, leaving the new room free of fixed joinery except for a single run of low level solid oak units that provide storage and a shelf for artworks. The inclusion of full height sliding glass doors and a minimally framed roof-light provide an abundance of natural day-light and visual connections to the rear garden. The structural steel was left exposed to provide a distinct design motif as well as maximising the ceiling heights and sense of space.

Built by contractor Gilbert-Ash, the glass, steel and wood building has a complex design. Along with an impressive custom glazed oval walling system, one of the most notable design elements in the superstructure is its cantilevered hyperbolic paraboloid top ring beam with a zinc roof. It’s often referred to as “The Pringle” (potato chip) due to its shape. To put that highly geometric language in context, it essentially means that the Mayhew Theater was a complicated structure to build.
