Located in the southwest London, the London-based firm has reconfigured and extended the ground floor of the Gladstone Road property. The main goal of the project was to create living spaces with views and access to the garden.

“Inside this unassuming Victorian House is a unique, contemporary total refurbishment with additional rear and roof extensions,” said Studio 1 Architects. “Seamless skylights, concrete floors, exposed brickwork, projecting glass box, whitewashed ash slats and oak ribs create an enthralling new take on a period house,” they added.

The one-storey brick structure is occupied by a built-in seating area, with a huge window, that let all the light and view from the garden come in, cantilevers with thin black frames.
“A protruding glass box cantilevers over the garden,” explained them. “This box is frameless and provides a close connection to the garden when sitting in the built in seating area”. “Ash timber slats create zoning of the sitting area and wrap up and over the ceiling,” they added.”These disappear into a seamless skylight.”

aiming to provide a slatted light effect over the dining area, they used seasoned oak ribs. A long bench runs along the the brick wall towards the end where a set of glass doors open to the garden.
