Cohanim Architecture - heritage and listed building architects in London and Henley-on-Thames

Managing the design process for an Ambassador's home is a task which necessitates a more complex mix of visitor types, amenity considerations, security processes and use-classes. London was home to the Polish government during its years in exile and thus holds even greater symbolic importance. Few commissions carry this specific and demanding combination of design constraints, let alone couple them with the heritage demands which arise when dealing with a Grade II* building in central London. It remains a true privilege to be entrusted with this type of work - we are therefore absolutely delighted that Listed Building Consent and planning permission were secured in 2026 following many months of hard work by the team.
