Architecture, interiors and urban design for homes and residential development.
We are a Richmond-based architecture and interior design studio specialising in residential projects across South West London. We work with private homeowners, developers and landowners to create thoughtful, well-crafted homes and unlock the potential of residential sites.
Our work ranges from house extensions and refurbishments to small residential developments and feasibility studies. With a focus on light, space and carefully considered materials, we design homes that feel calm, functional and enduring.
Wolf en Den honours our founder’s grandparents. They ran a design shop called ‘The Loft’ in Kirby Lonsdale, Cumbria in the early 1960s. Before Habitat brought modern design to the high street, their shop offered a mix of Scandinavian homeware. The shop also offered handmade pieces from the north of England. These included blankets, baskets, and bone and horn items for everyday use.
Behind The Loft was a quiet belief that good design belongs in daily life. Every piece chosen for material quality, usefulness, and tactile beauty – ideas that shape our approach today.
Like the ethos of the shop, our practice celebrates thoughtful simplicity. We believe design is most powerful when it feels natural, when it supports life quietly and beautifully.
Wolf en Den is both a tribute and a continuation, reminding us that everyday spaces should be made with care and designed to last, grounded in the honesty of their materials.
