The project to refurbish and extend this mid-terrace Victorian house in Peckham began in late 2021. We were approached by a client with a clear brief of not only extending to meet the space requirements of a young family but also with a strong sense of aesthetics and quality of interior spaces that they wanted to achieve. An exterior design was arrived at through a careful study of precedents within the area. An emphasis was placed on blending in and remaining subservient to the existing built environment through materiality that blends harmoniously with its surroundings. Internally, we are working to the clients brief of creating a timeless yet unmistakably contemporary and functional interior. The aim is to utilise the orientation of the property for natural daylight, introduce clever storage solutions and use materials that will age gracefully and provide the perfect backdrop for living.
