We've broken up the space which is in keeping with industrial features of this extension. We really love this extension and how well the structural elements such as the exposed brickwork and beautiful clean glazing work with the bold colours and woodwork. Rough and clean textures are softened with warm wood which achieves the right balance creating a wonderful atmosphere and entertaining space. Part of the requirement was to retain the first floor roof terrace. The pitched roof down the side helps to create interesting angles whilst letting the beams sit below the ceiling.

The rear garden has been paved to create a generous patio area with designated seating space set below a timber pergola. Beyond is a large family garden. Set back from the single storey extension, a large first floor extension projects out above to form the new master bedroom.

Two flats were converted back into a single family home, creating contemporary open-plan living areas. Fully extending glass folding doors (by Sunfold Systems) create seamless indoor outdoor living from the kitchen onto the garden. The house was extended to the side and rear and the loft was also converted. A rare planning approval was subsequently granted to extend the loft further over the full floor plan.
