Victoria Mews is an interior reimagining of a three bedroom mews property in Kilburn, London to increase the footprint of a small dwelling. The architects were tasked with expanding the living space and making the building more environmentally sound, whilst retaining the external character of the mews. The property was in need of visual renovation and suffered from condensation, rising damp, poor air tightness and no insulation in the floor, walls and windows.

维多利亚·米尔斯(Victoria Mews)是伦敦基尔伯恩(Kilburn)一处三居室住宅的内部重新设想，目的是增加一套小型住宅的占地面积。建筑师的任务是扩大居住空间，使建筑更加环保，同时保留建筑的外部特征。该物业需要进行视觉翻新，有凝结、湿气上升、气密性差、地面、墙壁和窗户没有绝缘。

To meet this challenge, extensive changes were made internally to increase the footprint of the property. The proposed plans did not change the external walls, but instead gutted the property internally and created a new floor level without needing to raise the roof. By lowering floor levels and reinforcing the perimeter of the roof with a new ring of steel, an additional level of living space was accommodated on the third floor. The mews now boasts three bedrooms, two living spaces, and bathroom facilities on every level.

为了应对这一挑战，在内部进行了广泛的改革，以增加财产的足迹。提议的计划并没有改变外墙，而是在内部摧毁了房产，创造了一个新的楼层，而不需要提高屋顶。通过降低楼面水平和用新的钢圈加固屋顶周边，三楼增加了一层居住空间。现在每个楼层都有三间卧室、两间起居空间和浴室设施。

An innovative approach has been used for the stair layout, the second flight spirals within the first flight of stairs creating a lofty space in what would have otherwise been an enclosed property. The stair has been clad in birch plywood to provide a visual link to all the spaces of the property. Through creative design the property has been completely transformed without the need for major demolition or extension of the original property.The result is a residential property fit for the 21st century and capable of adaptation for future changes.

楼梯布局采用了一种创新的方法，第一层楼梯内的第二层螺旋形成了一个高耸的空间，否则这将是一个封闭的财产。楼梯已覆盖桦木胶合板，以提供一个视觉链接的所有空间的财产。透过创意设计，该物业已完全转型，毋须大规模拆卸或扩建原有物业。其结果是一套适合二十一世纪的住宅物业，并能适应未来的转变。
