Private Residence, Blackheath, London
This late twentieth century house in Blackheath was stripped back to its original shell and extended – both to the rear and up into the existing roof void – to create a contemporary, open-plan family home. A structurally minimal folded steel staircase rises through the three levels within a top-lit hall, providing a physical and visual link between floors. The simple rear extension runs the full width of the main living space, opening through a sliding glass wall onto a decked rear garden.
