In Cambridge, this project transformed a long-standing family home to create a new kitchen and expanded living room with significantly improved connection to the large garden. The existing space was deep and dark, with an excessive amount of utility and storage space. The client, who is a couple with grown children, wanted a more open space that allows for large family gatherings, as well as a better connection to the garden. To achieve this, all utility spaces were reorganised and a side extension was added to accommodate a new larder. This extension was seamlessly integrated into the garden with large double doors. By curving the volume it reduced any impact on garden views.
