Our clients wanted to create more space and re-configure the rooms they already had in this terraced house in London SW2. The property was just not big enough to accommodate their busy family life or for entertaining family and friends. They wanted a usable back garden too. One of the main ambitions was to create enough space downstairs for an additional family room combined with a large kitchen dining area. It was essential to be able to divide the different activity spaces too. The final part of the brief was to create something different. The design had to be more than the usual “box stuck on the back of a 1930s house.” Our solution was to look at several ambitious designs to deliver under permitted development. This approach would reduce the cost and timescale of the project significantly. However, as a back-up, we also applied to Lambeth Council for full planning permission for the same design, but with different materials such as a roof clad with zinc. Internally we extended to the rear of the property to create the large family-friendly kitchen, dining and living space our client wanted. The original front room has been divided off with steel framed doors that are double glazed to help with soundproofing. We used a hedgehog glazing system, which is very effective. The extension has a stepped plan, which helps to create internal zoning and to separate the different rooms’ functions. There is a non-symmetrical pitched roof, which is open internally up to the roof planes to maximise the feeling of space. The roof of the extension is clad in zinc with a concealed gutter and an overhang to provide shelter. Black bricks and dark grey mortar give the impression of one material, which ties into the colour of the glazing frames and roof. This palate brings all the elements of the design together, which complements a polished concrete internal floor and a stylish contemporary kitchen by Piqu.

The fundamental theme of the house throughout is black and white with a mix of old and new; a classic look which is complimentary to the villa period. This colonial-inspired kitchen gets its sparkle from the star patterned splash-back. Black-framed cabinetry with a silver rub and turned legs to the kitchen island enhance the look.

Italian Kitchen, Living and Bathroom With its full, satisfying taste, the Esprit kitchen stri kes contrasts between colours such as Pure White Tactile Firwood (the counter and cupboard doors ) and Mocha Tactile Firwood (the doors and side panels of the living-room composition). Grey Stone Okite (a Scavolini exclusive) and glass are used for the tops of the counter and the living-room composition. The matching furniture (the Youngvillen stools), the accessories and the appliances (such as the original suspended hood) are new-generation. A glazed screen allows this kitchen’s hospitality, modernity and vitality to be appreciated to the full - See more at: http://www.scavolini.us/kitchens/Esprit
