Planning approval has been granted for a new 3 bedroom house in Lower Clapton, East London. The house occupies a vacant site at the end of a large garden adjacent to an end of terrace Victorian house. The new house is contemporary and designed to sit comfortably in its context. The ground floor is open plan living space with access to two glazed courtyards and filling the footprint of the site. A smaller rectilinear two storey pre-patinated copper clad upper element sits above and contains the bedroom spaces. Construction is planned to start on site in 2020.
