Summary
Modern rear extension to form new open-plan kitchen / dining and sitting area.
The Brief
Connect the family living environment with the garden.
New garden pavilion
The rear extension has been designed to appear as a stand-alone garden pavilion, but is actually connected to the ground floor to provide a large open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area.
The canopy
The canopy provides shading in the summer months to reduce the sunlight that enters the building to keep the interior as cool as possible. In the winter, when the sun is lower, sunlight will pass under the canopy and warm up the interior spaces. Accoya timber was used as cladding and this will last for 60+ years.

Open on two sides
The extension has been designed to open up on two sides to maximise natural light and the connection with the rear patio and garden beyond. A large skylight provides additional natural light into the centre of the room.
