The Street II


Other Studio Architects are currently extending an eighteenth century Grade II-listed North Norfolk cottage.

The proposals include; the demolition of an existing unsympathetic conservatory space, the construction of a sustainable light-weight timber clad extension, reconfiguration of the ground floor layout, and re-working the house’s relationship to the garden.

The new extension will create an open plan living, kitchen and dining space forming a new heart to the house. The proposals re-orientate the rear of the house to establish a new relationship with the garden; maximising both views and the westerly evening light.

The extension has been designed as a contemporary addition, with it’s origins in the existing house. The new glazing proportions have been derived from the golden ratio found within the proportions of the original Georgian front windows and structurally exposed timber joists form strong parallels with the existing cottage structure.
