Key terms

Goldsmith Mews is a development of four homes that replaces a row of derelict garages. The design channels the memory of the neighbouring Lord Nelson pub – long since demolished – taking the name of the pub’s first landlady, Sarah Goldsmith. The village of Chalk has a rich history, most notably as the seaside resort frequented by Charles Dickens, who holidayed and honeymooned there, and based his novel Great Expectations on what he observed in Chalk. The design is inspired by the character of the local village, which up until the 1940s was characterised by timber weatherboard buildings, including the former pub. This scheme seeks to reinstate the weatherboard aesthetic, but with a contemporary twist: Using a high-quality robust material which will not weather. The cladding panels replicate the rhythm and dimensions of timber weatherboarding, yet are durable enough to withstand the conditions of this exposed location on the edge of the Thames.
While the proposal is a characterful re-interpretation of historic elements from the site, this is a contemporary scheme with overtly modernist detailing. Office S&m’s admiration for the work of Jean Prouvé and his innovation with detailing is referenced in the porthole windows that provide a contrast to the otherwise historic material character. Similarly, the proposed colour palette circumvents the traditional colours associated with weatherboard, avoiding being described as vernacular.
