Over the years, KHD has developed a wealth of experience in re-designing and delivering projects to chalet style houses in the Sidcup area, and this is one such recently completed project. Such is the strength of our reputation that we are now the leading local architectural practice for home owners in this area seeking to push the boundaries of what is possible and create their dream home.
Working in close collaboration with our clients Gareth and Thom, our brief on this project was to extend out to the rear to the maximum possible depth and height for a new open-plan kitchen diner and living area, and to extend at first floor level to create a spacious master bedroom suite. With a playful use of colour and art deco inspired interiors, we transformed the house into a contemporary and stylish home.
Following successful dialogue with the planning officer, we were able to secure permission to extend out to the rear an additional metre beyond local planning policy, implementing an angled wall design that results in a larger internal space. Through clever technical design we also lowered the level of the rear extension floor by 300mm which results in a very generous ceiling height.
