forresterarchitects have completed a distinctly retro style rear extension to a terraced house in East London. A touch of scandinavian influence compliments a way of living with mid-century furniture providing simple lines and natural materials. An inclined exposed roof structure and timber floor provides a visually interesting interior which extends outside to form a garden pergola to a south facing terrace. The new rear garden pergola extension is perfectly orientated enjoying sunshine in the early morning through to the late evening. As well as providing a passive solar shading device to the interior the new pergola defines a wonderful terrace overlooking the garden. The south facing aspect is prefect for the client. A far cry from the large, cold and draughty conservatory space which it replaced.
