REDESIGNING AND EXTENDING A 1960’S UGLY HOUSE TO CREATE AN EXCEPTIONAL, MODERN FAMILY HOME

The layout of the property has been radically rethought, getting rid of an outdated carport on the ground floor and moving the main living spaces to the ground floor to create a more welcoming atmosphere at the entrance to the home.

Beyond the lobby, a new bespoke kitchen sits within a raw concrete extension. The full-width, single storey extension adds valuable extra space for the young family. All of these ground floor areas will have a clear view through to the garden - a design move that helps the inhabitants to embrace the outdoors.

High-level light streaming in from the first floor - through the mezzanine library helps the family to feel intimately connected to the changing of the seasons. The simple material palette of white oak parquet, birch faced ply and exposed timber beams respond to the client's expressed interest in honest materials and 'industrial' space.
