New spaces are strongly oriented to the garden with large sliding doors and draw in far more natural light via large rooflights in the inclined roofs. From what was a small, disconnected kitchen-dining arrangement there is now a light and generous space directly connected to the garden.

The high-quality waterstruck brickwork of the new extensions is a lighter buff to contrast and complement the existing house. Using a Flemish bond throughout, along the side street elevation the headers are inset slightly to create a texture as the sun comes along the western elevation. 

The location of the original side bay window is represented as three rectangles. 

Creating access to the loft extension involved reversing the direction of the centrally-located staircase, requiring major reorganisation of the first floor bedrooms. All chimney breasts were removed in order to maximise the internal space available.

All spaces are now insulated, significantly improving the energy use.
