The Dormer House
This family home needed to be extended to include two more bedrooms for a growing family, and a home office for two. By extending to the side, two children's bedrooms were created, with narrow elevations to the front and back, we designed occupiable windows which wrapped round into roof lights, to let in lots of light.
Upstairs now has the parent's bedroom and a home office for two, achieved with large dormers, to make light spaces. The kitchen now has sliding glass doors to connect to the deck and garden, which creates more of a contained space in the sitting room.
