THOUGHTFUL LUXURY
~ Our design philosophy ~
Our passion for beautiful buildings was awakened at the turn of the millennium when we
came across an unloved and dilapidated Georgian mansion nestled in the Hertfordshire
countryside. We immediately recognised the potential of this forgotten architectural
masterpiece and took it on as our first project. A labour of love, the next two years were spent
restoring every inch of this period building, preserving and reinstating many of the original
features. We put a great deal of thought into designing the interior to reflect the heritage
of the house, and coupled with meticulous attention to detail throughout, we restored it to its
former beauty.
At the heart of Oliver Burns is the concept of Thoughtful Luxury. We believe that luxury should go
beyond beauty and aesthetics to reflect deeper values and meaning in our homes. Everything we do
is thoughtfully considered, from taking our client’s exacting brief and seeking out the finest materials
and finishes, to working in an ethical and responsible manner. It is translated in our designs, reflected
in our thoughtful detailing and the bespoke pieces we create with highly skilled artisans.
Thoughtfulness, we believe, is pivotal to delivering an exceptional home that surpasses our clients’
expectations. This is why from concept to completion, every luxury home or development we create is
thoughtfully designed, thoughtfully built and thoughtfully finished.
