The clients’ initial request was for a scheme which would see new rear living spaces opening to the outside, and to have the new spaces fuse seamlessly with the older part of the home.

Entering the home, you’re greeted by a timber floor directing you to the new rear extension. A large skylight allows light to beam down upon this transitional space.

A new brick fireplace has been designed to be viewed as you enter the original residence, and acts as the central axis for the new areas. The use of brick links back to the original heritage facade.
