A House with a Brick Twist: Design and Build in Newham

Borough: Newham

Service: Design and Build

 

 

The East London rear extension and refurbishment with a twist in the tail.

The impressive kitchen extension enhances the sense of space and brightness, thanks to the thoughtful incorporation of skylights and bi-fold doors.  The long vista through the kitchen and into the garden draws the eye and makes the space feel even larger. Furthermore, the blend of dark cabinetry with light walls introduces an element of contrast and modernity.

The unique twisted brick layout on the exterior of the house was something we thoroughly enjoyed designing and showcasing in various forms prior to construction. It truly stands out as a wonderful, unique family home, perfect for a young family.
