The Architect lived in this urban terraced house for many years before completing the works. This in-depth knowledge of the property forms the basis of a beautifully considered extension and renovation. The skilled care and attention to detail maximises the available space, cleverly utilising every corner of the tight plan. The choice of materials is measured using a complimentary palette of textures and colours. The house is generously illuminated with roof lights, large windows and a central lightwell, which effectively draws light and landscaping into the depth of the plan. When the glazed doors of this space are all open, the external air and ambience permeates the interior, creating a very special place.
