Napier Villa Extension.

ArchiPro Project Summary - Thoughtfully designed extension nearly doubles the size of a heritage villa, adding a second floor with three bedrooms and a bathroom, while creating an open-plan living space and modern kitchen with a seamless connection to the garden.

Title:: Napier Villa Extension
Architect:: Citrus Studio Architecture
Category:: Residential

How to nearly double the size of an existing villa while retaining the heritage and charm of the original was the challenge in this project. The answer to this brief was to add a second floor, housing three bedrooms and a bathroom in an extension that is designed using the forms and detailing of the original.

This freed up space at ground level to use the north facing side for living spaces, with a new, more open plan and modern, single storey extension to the rear for a new kitchen and dining area with a generous deck connecting living with the garden.
