Entry Description

The project involved the restoration and refurbishment of St. Augustine's Church in West London, UK. Roz Barr Architects were appointed by The Order of St Augustine to develop the site and create a new Augustinian Centre with the restoration of the church as the first phase of a larger building project. Roz Barr wanted to respect the original volume and features of the church; stripping back layers of paint and decoration from the existing timber and masonry to reveal the hidden architecture. The project included a new altar and confession booths, as well as a new sustainable heating system.
