Mount Stewart Avenue
This black stained timber box was designed as an extension to an existing pebble dash dwelling in Harrow.
The house is in a conservation area and our proposal compliments the existing dwelling through a contrasting but neutral dark finish.
The planning department responded well to our approach which took inspiration from the highly wooded gardens surrounding the dwelling. The dark and textured stained larch provides a sensitive addition to the saturated pebble dash and provides the contemporary addition the client was seeking.
Hit and miss timber cladding breaks the black planes and provides solar shading to the South Facing glass, as well as enhanced privacy levels.
The interior was completely refurbished as part of the works to create a completely open plan arrangement at ground floor level.
A 2 metre wide sliding wall was included to offer separation between the living room and the open plan kitchen if so desired.
