House in Hackney

Built

Richard Chivers

A playful re-imagining of a Victorian terrace with a large rear extension.

Shortlisted in Don't Move, Improve! 2021

The project was designed for a very tall client, so was particularly focussed on how to best adapt a house with some low ceilings and small spaces in the area of the house that was most used, the lower ground floor. We added a double height staircase void and lots of rooflights to add light and volume.
