"Through removing and replacing a 1960s addition to a listed building, we have created a new timber-framed extension that looks out onto an existing garden."
Mole ArchitectsA 1960s extension has been replaced with this green-oak-clad double-height addition, which opens the back of the house up to the garden. Housing an artist's studio, a utility room and an en-suite bathroom, requirements in the extension range from total privacy to near-complete openness. This is articulated in the irregularly disposed frameless glazing, which gives liveliness to the facade, accentuated by the use of outward-opening insulated timber shutters. Reclaimed roof tiles echo the pitched roof of the original house, from which the extension is differentiated by a separating frameless glass slot.
