Text details provided by architects. When the studio 163 was approached by customers, a couple with a design background with two young children, the Kentish Town conservation area had a narrow ground in the three -storey roof, with daylight, head height, storage and living There was a shortage of place in place. By providing a full-width rear extensions and renewal of the entire house, the project maximized light opportunities, making different atmosphere and spaces, which are yet to feel intimate. The material palette was deliberately limited and natural to create a minimum, but tanwala and warm interior.
The rear extension was excavated to increase the height of the roof and make a level change between the front living room and the kitchen/dining area. The original level of the house is expressed by the change of materiality, with a beige polish concrete daym line. Constant concrete runs from the place of staying from the place to the courtyard and makes the place to feel more detail.
Two expanders bathed in natural light from roof light, new big open-plun kitchen framing with a adjacent dining area helped to add a separate environment within the same place from different roofing heights and different roofing heights Get Finn was added to one of the roof lights for privacy and customers were allowed to appreciate the changing shadow throughout the day as they put on the walls of the extension. A new opening was created to create a better flow between the two parts of the ground and the oak threshold with hidden wardrobe marks the junction between the existing and the new.
Custom-made joinery was designed to provide adequate storage and maintain and feel clean and open. The kitchen cabinets and fronts are made in oak, in the continuity of the threshold and the full-heavier cupboard is deliberately cladd into a more neutral color to mix with its surroundings.
Externally, wherever possible, being conscious of re -use of existing materials, was used re -obtained for walls and courtyard decks. Shining doors are particularly long to bring as much natural light as possible and provide a strong relationship to the minimum frame garden. Imitation and rainwater pipes are beespoke to match the color of the window frame. The current rear mask is re -presented and left unpublished with the natural buff color of the surrounding London stock bricks.
