Woodlands Crescent

This small single-storey extension to a much loved semi-detached Victorian family dwelling was designed to replace an inefficient existing conservatory, consolidate the rear quarters of the house into a larger family hub space and provide direct access to the rear garden. The relationship between the now larger kitchen space and new dining/garden room volumes are offset through an oversized opening to create diagonal views between, with differentiation to each area expressed through the modelling of the ceilings. Externally, a combination of slate and rustic brick references the materiality of the existing building, with a contemporary flat roof and bi-folding glazing to the projecting garden room.
