Elmbank House
Rear Extension
The property is a Victorian mid-terraced, two storey, 3 bed room house, Built in rick work which form an 'M’ type butterfly roof .
The property consists of an L shaped footprint with along two storey projected rear building. The house is very narrow and internal walls block the flow of move and light and there was limited access to the garden.
​
The owner wishes to improve the property by erecting a roof extension at second floor level in the shape of a mansard and to have a side return in the form of ‘lean-to-roof’ at ground level along the rear projected wing.
​
A large open plan living space was created by opening up the front and rear reception rooms with new side infill space, providing ample living and family gathering space for our client’s young child and unborn baby.
​
A fully glazed skylight to the side extension allows for increased light levels and improved connections between the spaces linking the front of the house to the rear garden with side bench seating area along the new frank wall.
​
To rear facade, A large glass pivoting window enables people can seat from in and out of the house enjoying reading and dinning.
A calm material palette of reclaimed bricks and oak flooring gives a sense of warmth and texture to the home.
The rich detailing gives a tactile scale to the new domestic spaces.

The site comprises a two storey semi-detached dwelling located on the east side of Barton Green. The surrounding area is predominantly residential in character and appearance consisting mainly of semi-detached dwellings.
The owner sought to improve the property by erecting a single storey side and rear extension and loft conversion within the existing roof shape following the demolition of the existing side extension.

New Malden
Site context
No. 10 Montem road is a single-storey bungalow type of property with hip roof condition. The existing internal layout has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and kitchen/ living space with 2.5m half-depth rear extension on the ground floor. On the first floor, it has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom with 2 dormers on the south-facing side.
​
Design proposal
The proposal contains a 4m rear ground floor extension, alternation of roof shape on rear side of the first floor and an additional dormer on North facing side.
​
The main entrance of the property is placed on a small side alley and it induces poor visual attention on the entrance and an unpleasant access experience. Thus, improving the welcoming atmosphere charges the main design element. The existing entrance is widened with a sitting bench station and the ceiling height has risen with void creation on the first. The void is created by pushing the stair line 1m from the existing location and it forms a corridor on the first floor as a floating bridge. The opening from the entrance hall to the kitchen/ living space is also widened and this forms a pleasure view corridor to the rear garden from the entrance hall.
​
In terms of mass design, the rear side of the first floor gains extra space via altering the hip roof to a gable roof. With alternation, the room has a characteristic triangle opening to the rear garden. The view is enhanced with a green sedum roof on 4m rear ground floor extension. The side of the ground floor extension roof follows the pitched line of the proposed gable roof to provide a visual connection between the new extension and the existing building.
