The project in detail.
More room for everyday life
The concept considers an existing detached house with a modest single-storey rear addition. Its pitched roof and brickwork are intended to sit comfortably alongside the original building while creating a generous shared room at garden level.
A usable garden connection
The design focus is on a simple relationship between indoor living, a sheltered terrace and an enclosed garden. A separate quiet room would allow different activities to take place without making the home feel institutional.
