New Cross Road

Interior refurbishment and remodeling of the lower ground floor maisonette and the addition of an energy-efficient single-storey extension to the rear.

Although the existing flat benefits from a vast rear garden, it is very disconnected from it, with access only through a small door from the staircase half landing.

By offering a light-filled double height space and opening up the staircase you achieve transparency and a direct visual connection through to garden. Although the new extension has a small footprint, it provides a generous feeling to the space due to its high ceiling and transparency.

This is a redesign of a previously approved two-storey scheme, inflation taking a toll on the Client’s budget and possibilities.

The new extension provides a valuable direct connection between the habitable spaces of the lower ground floor and the garden, that is in line with modern day living standards.

It will allow increased amounts of natural lighting levels into the habitable spaces, views to the garden are encouraged by means of a large picture frame window and fully glazed patio doors.

The extension provides space for additional kitchen and dining area in lower ground floor, perfect for inviting to the much desired supper club!
