21 South Broomage Avenue

Arka was appointed by the purchasers of the original semi-detached bungalow and tasked with designing a rear extension to create a new open plan kitchen and dining area, which could open out to the south facing garden. 

In addition a new utility room, accessible shower room, snug and garage were required on the ground floor along with a new dressing room and ensuite on the 1st floor. All of these were accommodated in a side extension connected to the new rear extension. 

The design was influenced by the clients desire to have the external aesthetics work with their internal styling preferences. As such the strong brick forms and use of Crittall-style fenestration as well as utilising the brick as an internal finish helped to create bright and airyspaces ideal for modern living whilst still allowing the original house to be fully integrated and utilised.
