Glazed addition
PROJECT OF THE MONTH
by Paul Archer Design
The
owners
of
this
property
briefed
Paul
Archer
Design
to
carry
out
a
full
house
refurbishment
that
would
support
their
growing
family.
The
existing
house
already
featured
a
tired
side
infill
extension
and
a
galley
kitchen.
The
latter
was
knocked
through
to
create
one
open-plan
space
to
connect
the
kitchen,
dining
and
living
rooms.
The
glazed
roof
on
the
side
return
addition
floods
the
new
space
with
daylight.
The
glazing
projects
out
beyond
the
rear
facade
to
form
a
glass
snug
with
minimal
sightlines
that
helps
create
the
sense
of
being
outside
while
relaxing
inside.
A
large
pivot
door
leads
out
onto
the
patio
from
the
kitchen
to
continue
the
strong
connection
to
the
garden
and
form
an
overall
contemporary
design.
