The Architect Your Home Hackney team redveloped this site for a family, allowing them to refresh the way they live as a family.

Separate homes and underused rooms have been re-designed to allow for plenty of light through the space and a space for the whole family to come together.

A newly excavated lower level allows for a generous open-plan kitchen and dining area, seamlessly connected to the garden. The splite level configuration now allows for the living room to over look this space, creating connection and openess.

Beneath the front of the house, with a basement a new playroom brings valuable extra space for the children, served by a carefully designed lightwell that fills the room with natural light.

Externally, the extension is finished Portland Stone, allowing for a timeless durable finish.
