The DHaus Company Complete the Arches Row of Townhouses
Amy Duong — March 20, 2023 — Art & Design
Architecture studio The DHaus Company has recently completed The Arches, which is a row of townhouses made with brick-clad details. It is located in a North London conservation area in place of what used to be a petrol station. The terrace's name is drawn from the monumental arches that create the facades of each three-level home which has been partially sunken.
This detail reoccures throughout so the studio decides to recreate a modern iteration. Design duo David Ben-Grunberg and Daniel Woolfson, who are the founders of the DHaus Company speak about the building, noting that "We undertook a study of local buildings in and around the local area. These buildings highlighted a strong mixture of rectangles and arches set within a brick canvas."
