Renovation and extension of an end of terrace house in Beaumont. A two-storey side extension extends the existing terrace and houses a new office and toilet at ground floor and bedrooms at first floor. The new open plan kitchen/dining/family area to the rear is conceived as a pavilion addressing the south facing garden and is defined by four deep brick piers with a concrete cornice to provide solar shading, which in turn supports a central glazed lantern wrapped in an external timber screen. Landscaping details respond to the linear nature of the brick piers. The internal walls are also of brick, and a fifth brick pier supports the corner of the original house. The internal brickwork and new polished concrete floor are softened by the internal joinery which is a mixture of oak & pale pink. The double height lantern space provides volume, diffused light and incorporates high-level planting, creating a hanging garden. The existing house has undergone a significant fabric upgrade, and new air-to-water heat pump system.
