These clients wanted to keep the imposing Georgian double-fronted façade and traditional layout upstairs, whilst dramatically changing the rear of the house which was a dark and uninviting 1970s extension. They requested striking, light-flooded, contemporary design with privacy from overlooking neighbours.
The re-design features full-height sliding aluminium doors which can be pushed back reveal a fully openable corner with overhanging flat roof. A sliding timber panel offers privacy from the neighbours, as well as adding a modern design feature to the rear exterior of the building.
The small kitchen now houses a generous utility room backing onto the new open plan kitchen area and bar. A large, unusable internal patio has been reduced to open up a zen-like internal courtyard next to the dining area and kitchen. A new all-glass link connects the new extension and ‘old’ lounge area, creating a more fluid and usable space.
This project has been filmed for the Channel 4 television programme ‘What the Neighbours Did’ and has been featured on the cover of Kitchens, Bedrooms and Bathrooms magazine.
