Ply in the Sky is a playful project, pushing the boundaries of materiality and planning legislation in London. Adding a bedroom and en suite through the construction of a full width dormer, the proposal also saw the refurbishment of an existing bathroom, updating the house to create a functional family home.

Internally a select palette of complementary materials has been purposefully chosen. As a recurring element, plywood acts as a thread, connecting the spaces together. In the master bedroom, stained plywood sheets occupy the walls and form cupboard doors. A feature plywood staircase acts as a modest accent to the house, connecting the existing floors with the new extension.
