Blackford living room extension
This property is a ground floor flat, subdivided from a 3 storey semi detached Victorian house. The living room in the flat was a conversion of the former garage. It was poorly insulated, and generally not well constructed. It also had to be accessed in a convoluted fashion via an unheated semi-outdoor space. The only solution was, in the end, to demolish the old garage and build a new, larger, extension, properly connected to the existing building improving light, flow, circulation and energy efficiency in one go. And, last but not least, improving the indoor to outdoor connection with the garden.
