CHURCH ROAD
arch/FORM were tasked with creating an annexed space for an elderly family member to join the main household and reside close by while also retaining a level of independence.
The wrap around side and rear extension sits on a relatively tight site and respects the street elevation with a conventional gable arrangement. This then wraps around the rear of the existing house to a parapet roof arrangement which has lanterns inserted to maximise the amount of natural light.
Keeping an open plan arrangement was key to this new extension, reducing the number of doors and threshold transitions to the absolute minimum in order to make the space as easy to navigate as possible.
Spaces include a Living - Dining area, Bedroom area, Dressing area and a Wet Room.
During the design process we produced a series of internal renders to help them appreciate the level of accommodation that can be achieved on a relatively tight site, which is also inclusive of a panoramic 3D walkthrough so each angle of the project could be reviewed.
The project is currently on site and is anticipated to be completed by Christmas 2023.
