This project for the refurbishment and extension of a semi-detached Gaorgian house in Twickenham presented its challenges. The original house had been extended in different moments and the resulting layout showed a number of change of floor level and ceiling heights. The result was chaotic and the spaces felt dark and small. By replacing the existing stair and forming a new one with a skylight above, we manged to bring daylight to the middle section of the house. A first floor rear extension (to form a new bedroom) was also used as an excuse to level the ceiling. The result is a bright environment where spaces flow organically.
