The Gables - Contemporary House Extension & Remodelling - Entrance View

Contemporary House Exterior, Glasgow

We were asked by our client to investigate options for reconfiguring and substantially enlarging their one and a half storey bungalow in Whitecraigs Conservation Area. The clients love where they live but not the convoluted layout and size of their house. The existing house has a cellular layout measuring 210m2, and the clients were looking to more than double the size of their home to both enhance the accommodation footprint but also the various additional spaces. The client’s ultimate aim was to create a home suited to their current lifestyle with open plan living spaces and a better connection to their garden grounds. With the house being located within a conservation area, demolition of the existing house was neither an option nor an ecofriendly solution. Our design for the new house therefore consists of a sensitive blend of contemporary design and traditional forms, proportions and materials to create a fully remodelled and modernised substantially enlarged contemporary home measuring 475m2. We are pleased that our design was not only well received by our clients, but also the local planning authority which recently issued planning consent for this new 3 storey home.
