Kitchen extension in Forest Hill

Project Story

These customers wanted a wrap-around rear extension with a difference. They had a limited budget but still wanted some wow factor and so by playing with the roof formation and light that’s exactly what their architect gave them.

This Victorian terraced house had very simple decoration and had not been updated for years. The customer’s wanted to extend into two outhouses (one of which was the original toilet) to create a wraparound single-storey kitchen extension and also include some internal alterations to form a ground floor bathroom.

The client had ambitions to do something different to the usual box extension design and had a desire to play with form and light. Our architect used cardboard models to develop a variety of options for getting improved and interesting light and shadow into the extension and main living areas eventually agreeing upon this sculptured roof shape, which exceeded all the clients expectations.
