The life and soul of the original property has been retained through the retention and refurbishment of traditional features such as the staircase, ceiling roses and parquet floor.
Utilitarian areas are placed to the back of the extension such as the large storage/cloak area. The utility serves as a separate area and can be opened up to become part of the kitchen area by way of sliding door/wall that can be opened up /closed off at the client’s discretion. The W/C is accessed off the utility to provide a double line of protection from the open plan living area.
Whilst their form has been preserved, they have been modernised with the introduction of a dark finish, which is a theme that has been introduced into the new part of the house.
The repetition of these bold dark, colours offer a visual transition into the new extension with its slab kitchen and clean lines.
The project was deemed an overall success and was featured as an 8 page spread in Ideal Homes- Febuary 2022
