This project involved the design and construction of a modern extension to a traditional brick home. The goal was to blend contemporary elements with the existing architecture, creating a seamless transition between old and new.
The extension features a striking combination of classic red brickwork and sleek black-framed windows and doors. The large glass panels flood the interior with natural light, while the brick maintains harmony with the original structure.
Inside, the extension opens into a spacious, open-plan living area, ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. The interior design emphasizes comfort and functionality, with a clear line of sight from the kitchen to the living area, enhancing the sense of space. Large, folding glass doors connect the indoor living space to the beautifully landscaped garden, creating a harmonious flow between the interior and exterior. The steps leading down to the garden are framed by carefully chosen plants and flowers, adding a touch of nature to the modern design.
This extension exemplifies how thoughtful design can enhance the functionality and aesthetic of a traditional home, providing a perfect blend of modern living while respecting the architectural heritage of the building.
