Extension, and remodelling of existing house
Stairs
A contemporary infill extension was proposed as
a link between the upper and lower levels, which also housed the dining area, with
the kitchen in the original forge, and guest rooms and play area within the
outbuildings.
The existing dwelling
comprised two linked cottages split over three levels. Below the lower link was
the original disused forge, with associated outbuildings.
The dining area linked to the external entertainment space, and
the relaxation area was situated on the extension roof accessed from the
existing lounge.
Proposed ground floor plan
Internally, our
client required a dining area and kitchen, an area for guests to stay, and a
play area for children. Externally, an area for private relaxation and an area
for entertaining was required.
Kitchen and dining goom
The quality of the contemporary design, juxtaposed against the
traditional cottage, has created a beautifully elegant solution.
