Kensal Green Architects

Kensal Green was first recorded as ‘The King’s Wood’ on a broad green at the junction of Harrow Road and Kilburn Lane (later Wakeman Road). 

Kensal Rise and Green is an important historic area, with a large number of well preserved Victorian housing and shops dating back to the 1890s. 

The neighbourhood extends east and west from Chamberlayne Road, characterised by independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes as well as Ark Franklin Primary School. Gentrification of the area began in early 2010s and has brought a new wave of residents to the neighbourhood, drawn by its lower house prices compared to nearby areas such as West Hampstead, Ladbroke Grove, Notting Hill, St John’s Wood and Belsize Park. 

RISE Design Studio has been working in the neighbourhood since being established in 2011 and has helped homeowners transform their homes with creative designs that are sympathetic to the beautiful period houses that the Victorian builders and architects built one hundred years ago. 

We are a RIBA chartered practice working in all areas of London as well as Ireland and more recently in Barcelona and Paris. Our services include partial or full architectural service with experience of working on listed buildings (bothEnglish Heritage listed and locally listed) as well as sites in the many conservation areas of London. 

In Kensal Green and Rise we have completed projects on many of the streets around the park including Purves Road, Burrows Road, Ashburnham Road, College Road, Leighton Gardens, Herbert Gardens, Leigh Gardens, Hardinge Road, Linden Avenue, Clifford Gardens, Bathurst Gardens and Chamberlayne Road! 

At the core of our values lies sustainability. We firmly believe that creativity can tackle any practical challenges. Our approach emphasises the use of natural light to enhance physical spaces, promoting the well-being of those who inhabit the spaces. Our starting point is always to listen to your needs, understanding the unique requirements of each of our clients, and celebrating their individuality through meaningful conversations that directly inform the design.

We offer a personal bespoke service and with each project we undertake we go above and beyond to meet your expectations. Combining our knowledge, energy and talents to deliver fantastic client care and striving to make a positive difference to your lives.
