Pitzhanger Manor
During the restoration of Pitzhanger Manor, Hare &
Humphreys worked with Jestico + Whiles, Julian Harrap
Architects and Quinn London to recreate the original
schemes of Sir John Soane that were overpainted in the
1830’s. This involved us at the start of the project taking
paint samples from every surface of the manor to analyse
and generate a report that could be used by all the
stakeholders involved.
A number of the finishes we recreated to match the
original included hand painted Chinese wall paper to the
drawing room, redecorating multicolored decorative
ceilings and apply faux stone, marble and gaining effects
throughout the project.
