A full-service architecture and interior design studio. We handle everything from concept and planning to build and delivery, so your project is as effortless as the result is beautiful.
Was founded by Paulo Hanke, a Brazilian-born architect with deep roots in both the British and Portuguese property markets. What sets us apart is not simply design talent, but market intelligence: we understand what adds real value to a property, which refurbishments make financial sense, and how to navigate the nuances of building across two distinct architectural cultures.
Whether you are a high-net-worth homeowner in London seeking a bespoke transformation, or an international investor entering the Portuguese market for the first time, PH London is your trusted partner from first brief to final handover.
We work fluently in the historical architectural languages of both the UK and Portugal — preserving what is valuable, and elevating what is possible.
From sourcing suppliers to managing contractors, we operate seamlessly across two countries so you do not have to.
— Founder & Lead Architect
Every project is different. Our services are structured to give you precisely what you need — whether that is a full architectural package or a focused interior refresh.
Full architectural design and planning applications, including liaison with local authorities and building control. From extensions and conversions to ground-up development.
Bespoke interior architecture and design tailored to your lifestyle. Space planning, material specification, furniture selection, and lighting design cohesively resolved.
Custom-designed joinery and fitted furniture crafted to the exact dimensions and aesthetic of your space — kitchens, libraries, wardrobes, and more.
Full site oversight from tender to final delivery. Contractor selection, payment plans tied to deliverables, and rigorous budget control throughout the build.
Strategic guidance on property acquisition and development potential. Design-led value enhancement for investors and owner-occupiers alike.
Outdoor spaces conceived as extensions of the interior. Gardens, terraces, and external schemes designed to the same rigour as the interior.
A curated selection of residential transformations, interior designs, and refurbishment projects across London and Portugal.
From listed buildings in London to historic apartments in Lisbon, our expertise spans every stage of the design and build process.
We do not just design spaces. We understand the market, the materials, and the craftsmanship required to add lasting value to a property.
We begin by listening. A detailed conversation about your goals, timeline, and budget — so we design for your life, not simply for your walls.
We translate your vision into a structured design brief, complete with mood boards, references, and a clear scope of work.
From concept drawings to detailed plans — we refine the design until every detail is right, keeping you involved at every step.
We manage the build process, coordinate with trusted suppliers in both countries, and deliver your project on time and on budget.
Paulo Hanke is personally involved in every project. You will always have a senior architect who knows your brief inside out — never a junior team handed the work.
We know what adds value and what does not. Our recommendations are always rooted in the real economics of property in London and Lisbon.
We work with international clients from across the globe. No language barriers, no cultural blind spots — just clear communication and expert guidance, wherever you are based.
From the first sketch to the final handover, we manage every detail. You stay informed without being overwhelmed.
