"Michael and Pearl have been helping us on a design to convert two houses into one. They have been incredibly patient with us and taken on board all our needs and ideas, but are always prepared to suggest things we’ve not thought about it what they think would work for us. They are both very professional and truely nice people. It’s an absolute pleasure working with them."

The brief was for a ground floor extension that could create a new open plan kitchen / living / dining space. Owing to the standard width of the property options were limited, however material choices enabled a simple, contemporary design that visually extended the space beyond its four walls. By using a glass roof on its attached side, the terrace house was able to have a roof with 'restricted' height that is not 'visible' and so it does not constrain the space. The main space opens out via a pair of patio doors into the rear garden which bring the outdoors in.
