Gresford Architects designed (RIBA Stages 0–3) and Allen Architects delivered (RIBA Stage 4&5 — after Gresford Architects moved from London to Oxford) this single storey rear/side extension to a terraced house in London Fields.

Delivering the design and contemporary details relied on our direct involvement with, and the co-ordination of specialist sub-contractors on behalf of our client.

A large format glazed pivot door provides direct connection to the brick paved patio and garden beyond, whilst the corner glazed rear extension plays host to a breakout snug and informal dining area ancillary to the kitchen.

Zinc cladding, sharply detailed and in dark tones compliments through contrast this beloved example of traditional London Victorian architecture.
