For over 30 years, John Dyer Grimes and his team have worked quietly within some of London’s most architecturally significant residential settings, delivering a limited number of highly considered private commissions each year.
As Architects for Kensington and Chelsea, the practice is known for shaping residences that feel entirely at ease within their surroundings while reflecting the individuality of those who inhabit them. From listed townhouses and garden-square residences to carefully restored apartments and concealed contemporary interventions, each project is approached as a singular architectural commission.
