The design incorporates an interesting palette of materials including yellow and red reclaimed stock brick and contemporary glass. The details relate strongly to the features of the surrounding terraced properties, whilst remaining unique, not pastiche.

The property sits back from the pavement, yet continues its relationship to its neighbours with connection via the boundary wall. At the rear, large windows flood the internal space and create multiple views of the private south facing courtyard, including through the cleverly placed glass on the stair landing. Vaulted ceilings to the entrance, create that feeling of space.

The first floor has a double bedroom with ensuite and a dressing area – the main bedroom internally detailed with fold back shutters to work with the tall arch window.

Designing with sustainability in mind, we chose timber panel system outperforming  traditional techniques, contributing positively to the environment by helping to lower CO2 levels. The external choice of reclaimed brickwork cut into brick slips to work as the outer skin of such a system.
