Glazed Timber Extension Rejuvenates Dreary London Home

Sometimes a simple extension or addition is all it takes to turn and dark and boring old home into a stylish, modern hub fit for an urbane family. Once a grand Victorian villa and then a more modest, traditional British house, Clapton Home was in need of an urgent upgrade as its homeowners wanted to transform its ambiance and appeal completely. Nestled in a tranquil neighborhood of London, there was plenty of space on offer for Scenario Architecture to give the classic home a smart makeover that connects the interior with the gorgeous green garden outside.

It is a rear extension that gets the job done as the glazed timber addition now holds the new dining area, kitchen and family room of the revitalized house. Crafted to ensure that those inside enjoy an open and airy living atmosphere that is accentuated by the visual connectivity with the green outdoors, the nifty extension blends in with the existing structure almost seamlessly. A clean, white color palette sits next to the already present exposed brick walls comfortably even as large skylights bring in a flood of natural light.
