Traditional blends with modern in this renovated terraced house.

  • The clients, a young professional couple with Mosi the dog, wanted to create a home to meet their current needs as well as having the potential to work as a family house in the future. Their key priority was a large open plan kitchen, dining and living space at the back of the house.

    The house was a tired terraced home that needed a total refurbishment, with a narrow kitchen at the back to which a poor quality extension had been added some years previously.

    We designed a side and rear extension to maximise the available space at the back of the house. The rear of the property faces north so we used extensive glazing to invite as much light as possible into the space. The clients were keen to use natural materials so we incorporated lots of wood, including designing a bespoke built-in dining bench which also offered a concealed storage unit in birch wood.
