We believe that every project, no matter how big or small should be approached from the same perspective.
We challenge each brief to:
-
Minimise the impact on global environments
-
Enhance the community and the surrounding area
-
Create the most ideal spaces for the end user
This trifocal methodology has the potential to provide a catalyst for change that benefits all. We reject a one-size-fits-all approach in favour of allowing each project to grow into a bespoke design that works uniquely with the immediate community.

Dario is passionate about sustainable and bioclimatic architecture and he strongly defends the benefits of an environmentally friendly construction industry. He is committed to leave a 'greener' future to the coming generations.
With the aim to gain expertise in this field he left his home country after he completed his studies at the Polytechnic School of Genova. He joined Luis de Garrido Architects in Spain where he was involved in deep green advanced architecture projects.
Now, in this new stage of his career, he is also focusing on the technical side of the projects - driven by Picasso's quote:
' Everything you can imagine is real '.
He speaks fluent Italian and Spanish.

TEAMWORK
In our office, we envisage the work to build a building as teamwork, not only about Green Tea Architects but all the consultants involved. In order to achieve a "job well done" it is required a great client, a good builder and a great team of professionals - architect, structural engineer & mechanical engineer. All of them have to be working as a team with the same objectives and aims. We propose a clear & fluent communication with all the intervening parties.

TEXT
For this project, we were given the challenging brief of restoring this 19th Century former coach house and kitchen gardens in South East London into a beautiful three bedroom family home.
The overall aim was to conserve the existing character of the buildings on the site, whilst also providing the functionality and performance of a modern house. Above the floor level windows, the original ornate lintel bricks have been painstakingly restored and the original Charles Collinge hinges to the garage doors have also been restored. The garage doors have been slatted to allow daylight through, this sympathetically knits the new spaces with the existing building fabric to provide continuity with the remainder of the garages on the site.
Green Tea Architects' key move was to provide a glazed link between the coach house and adjoining garages, this allowed the accommodation to be spread over the footprint of the two spaces. The two gabled loft spaces of the coach house - formerly used to store hay, have been utilised to provide bedrooms. A number of large rooflights were included to provide bright internal spaces, these also provide views of the surrounding context and sky. Sliding doors to the main façade provide views and access to the landscaped courtyard.
