‘Oh What A Ceiling!’ is what all visitors exclaim upon entering the striking extension of this beautiful family home. Hence, it is also the name given to this project which ingeniously transformed a tired mid-century brick veneer house into a suburban oasis for a multigenerational family.
Our clients, Gabby and Peter, came to us with a desire to reimagine their ageing home such that it could better cater to their modern lifestyles, accommodate those of their adult children and grandchildren, and provide a more intimate and meaningful connection with their garden. The renovation would reinvigorate their home to enable them to host bustling family gatherings with confidence and joy, to re-engage with their passions for cooking and sewing, and explore their skills in the garden and workshop.
The resulting design not only delivered on our client’s multifaceted and aspirational brief, but brought a new level of energy efficiency and comfort to the house, whilst also packing a punch in the form of design ingenuity.
