On the banks of the river Thames at Kew, St James Homes is currently building a development balancing classic and contemporary architectural influences. A combination of crescents, mews, terraces and apartment blocks lend themselves to the opportunity to use cast stone in imaginative ways. Delicate bull-nose heads and cills are detailed, together with a stringcourse throughout the development, to achieve a subtle effect that blends classic designs with new.

Fixed by our experienced stone technicians, complex cast stone door surrounds make impressive communal entrances to the mews buildings. With cast stone balconies and radiused cill detailing, the whole development shows how the subtle use of cast stone completes the contemporary architectural vision.
