Press
“This is a house that can’t be ignored… A fantastically brave and well executed ‘grand project’ of domestic architecture!”
Manser Medal Jury
“The Lawns is a very disciplined and exciting house and is an exemplar of how the 21st century house can be incorporated into historic conservation areas as part of the continuing evolution of domestic architecture.”
RIBA Stirling Prize Jury
“A sexy, impeccably detailed jewel, shimmering in an otherworldly light; it is so perfect, so neat… it’s one of the most important houses built in Britain for decades.”
Tom Dyckhoff
“Highgate has been a place where interesting and pioneering one-off houses have been built by and for designers. This latest one takes that tradition to a new generation with verve and panache”
John Winter
“Already one of the architectural legends of the present”
Alan Powers
“The contemporary design of this scheme seeks to push the boundaries of standard housing design both in terms of architecture and materials and this is considered to be a good approach in this location, which should be encouraged.”
Wandsworth Council - Conservation Officer
“The building certainly sits well in the landscape and responds to it … this represents a proposal of exceptional quality which could and should be an exemplar… It is our opinion that this is a truly outstanding proposal, is sensitive to the defining characteristics of the area and does propose significant enhancements to its setting.”
Design Review Panel - Design South East
“It is unbelievably difficult to achieve quality. Quality in design, in finish, in workmanship. Here it has been achieved and I am lost in admiration for the excellence of the building work and the thorough rigour of the design. This comes as near to a faultless building as I have seen for a long time.”
John Winter
“Eldridge [London]’s latest addition is one of the finest contemporary houses in London”
Matt Gibberd
“It is refreshing that that Epsom & Ewell planners were receptive to the idea of a modern house…suggesting ‘that this was potentially a listed building of the future’. The patronage of domestic architecture rarely allows for an evolution in house forms, but Deodar’s integration of low- energy technology, craftsmanship and functionality would be exceptional in any location.”
Lucy Bullivant
One of ”10 architect provocateurs who are shaking things up with bold, innovative designs”
Hugh Graham
“This is contemporary architecture of great sophistication and quality which nevertheless responds to the character and setting of the nearby manor house and the wider character of this part of the AONB… the development will be of the highest architectural quality… as a result enhancing the setting of both the manor house and the area generally”
Shepway Council - Planning and Conservation Officer
“The scheme is on a trajectory to be truly outstanding, reflecting the highest standards in architecture… The architecture has an elegance and simplicity consequent on the pervading concept. It has a presence, yet will not be overly intrusive in the wider countryside. It has interesting features but generally settles calmly into the landscape that flows between the built elements.“
Design Review Panel - Design West
