A new skylight draws the changing light deep into the plan, shifting in tone and intensity throughout the day. It transforms the once-dim core of the home into a calm, luminous workspace where light becomes both a tool and a quiet presence.

A Kitchen With Purpose
Designed for someone who loves to cook, the new kitchen becomes a hub of activity and calm. It opens directly to the garden, creating a natural flow between meal preparation, dining, and time spent outdoors.

Where Old and New Meet
This renovation balances respect for the home’s post-war origins with the needs of contemporary life. The result is a home that feels connected, nurturing, and attuned to its inhabitants and their daily rituals.

Opening to the Garden
At the rear, a poorly built sunroom had blocked the home’s connection to the garden. Its removal reclaims the masonry walls and allows for a new outdoor deck that seamlessly extends the kitchen space. Morning light now flows into both the home and garden, creating a calming sense of openness.

A Bathing Space for Stillness
The redesigned bathroom is wrapped in warm terracotta tiles, grounding the space with earthy tones. A deep Japanese bathtub offers a moment of pause, while a reconfigured shower layout improves comfort and usability.
