Significant improvements to a poorly articulated, pre-existing rear extension. The project sought to increase the daylighting and volumetric quality of the open- plan Kitchen/ Living/ Dining area and enhance the visual and physical connections to the garden. The works also included the refurbishment of 2No existing Bathrooms and decorative, plumbing and electrical improvements throughout the home. The works demonstrate the value of revisiting aspects of a previously extended home. At Bishops Road, we were able to adapt and reuse the lion share of the pre-existing extension to create a much improved family space with visual and physical links to the garden. Moreover, the transition between the proportions and decorative features of the Victorian dwelling to the contemporary extension are sensitively managed. This is enhanced further with high quality fixtures and fittings.
