The client was keen to respect the host dwelling, a tight sub-urban end of terrace, whilst wanting to make the space work as efficiently as possible. We designed a new kitchen and layout in the rear of the property whilst letting light penetrate through via a rooflight in the small lean-to extension. A roof dormer extension maximised views out over the park and provided a much needed 3rd bedroom. We were able to use our creativity in the design of the stairs in order to complying with building regulations but maximise space.
