Client brief

A young family wanted better flow, more natural light and a shared everyday space for cooking, living and entertaining.

Work undertaken

  • Built a large rear and side extension and removed multiple internal walls.
  • Opened up a new kitchen and family space with large rooflights, bifold doors and a picture window.
  • Added a ground-floor shower room, new garage and utility area.
  • Created a raised patio around the rear and side to improve access from the new living space.

Challenges and decisions

  • The layout needed to bring several ground-floor uses together without losing practicality.
  • Natural light and level access were central to making the new space feel part of daily family life.
