Project description

The project in detail.

Making more of the roof space

This Solihull design proposal explores the potential for additional accommodation within the roof of a familiar family house. A full-width rear dormer creates a broad garden-facing elevation and a more upright space at loft level, while retaining the garden below.

A modern finish with a simple form

Charcoal standing-seam metal cladding gives the dormer a clean, contemporary appearance above the original red brick. Two wide windows balance daylight with areas of solid wall. Slim frames and a restrained roof edge keep the detailing quiet, with a strip of existing roof tiles visible below.

Space shaped around everyday needs

The loft could be developed around a bedroom, a quiet workspace or flexible family accommodation. A measured survey would establish the available headroom and how a staircase could connect to the floor below before the internal layout is fixed.
