The transformation of this Victorian house in Kew includes a deep rear extension, expanding the kitchen and dining area while creating a new snug and strengthening the connection between the house and the garden.

Conceived as a simple contemporary pavilion, the extension works alongside carefully considered internal alterations to create a clearer relationship between the ground floor living spaces. Long views through the house towards the garden enhance the sense of openness, while a new garden-level sitting area provides a direct step-free connection to the landscape.
