The Appeal of Georgian Homes

The Octagon Bespoke team are experts at designing and building a wide range of truly unique homes across Southern England, from ultra-modern and contemporary, through to a more classic build – not forgetting the amazing and extensive restorations.

Whilst renowned for its classic Neo- Georgian architecture, symmetry, and grandeur, Octagon Bespoke are specialists in creating homes to cater for all architectural tastes. Current projects include an Arts and Crafts style home in North London, a Regency style home in Central London, a Listed Farmhouse conversion in Surrey, and a scheme of luxurious, contemporary apartments, which showcase clean, curved lines, natural materials and open plan living spaces.

With an in-house team of architects, planning experts and interior designers, the Octagon team enjoys undertaking a brief with a difference.

Bespoke Director, Laurence Holder discusses why the classical Georgian home is the style of the 2020s, and what we can expect when we step inside these postcard-perfect properties.

Catering for all tastes

 

“The Neo-Georgian style was inspired by 18th century Georgian domestic architecture – an enduring architectural style that favours formality, symmetry and interiors that celebrate craftsmanship and natural light.”

“While a perennially popular style, there’s no doubt Georgian and Neo-Georgian homes remain as popular as ever – with certain period television shows clearly influencing buyers’ tastes across the country – a la Bridgerton House.”

“Even with a classic exterior, clients are looking for all the bells and whistles of an ultra-modern home indoors. Clean lines and open plan spaces decked in the finest specification and materials – and of course, high tech gadgetry. Other internal modern features include the use of natural materials, stark contrasts, and cool tones.”

“Whilst Georgian and Neo-Georgian homes continue to be the most enduring and popular architectural styles of residential property, we relish the opportunity of a new client brief, and very much look forward to seeing what exciting projects and clients we will work with in 2024.”
