Roof and Ground Floor Extension in Hove

This project is interesting as it takes a fairly large house in Hove and illustrates how extensions and refurbishment can create a more considered, contemporary and light filled home, more suited to modern family life. The design sees the addition of a side infill extension and a loft conversion with a hip to gable. The ground floor is opened up and redesigned. Glazed screens and doors ensure that as soon as you enter views of the garden can be had a sense of openness is achieved. The side infill extension creates a far more usable kitchen dining space. A green Sedum roof is formed over the side infill extension providing a far improved view when looking over this space as it melds with the garden. A rooflight cuts through the sedum roof and is linked in a glass to glass detail with a glazed screen. Simple and elegant detailing will add much to this project. The project was granted planning permission with no concerns raised by the planning authority.
