A large thatched family home in Buckinghamshire, partially extended and redesigned to include a large open plan contemporary kitchen, dining area, living/TV room, larder, pantry and utility room
 

We were recommended to our clients via a local architect who we had worked with before, HAA – Heighway Associates Architects.

Our clients wanted a new space to accommodate a living and dining area with a large family kitchen and a very efficient utility room. We were given free rein to come up with the design, thus enabling us to use the space to maximise its full potential. The separation of the three different spaces (kitchen/dining/living) was paramount. Through space planning, lighting, colour changes and freestanding furniture we were able to keep each space separate whilst also ensuring they flowed and worked together.

The wraparound garden was an important part of the design, allowing more natural light to the new space and bringing the outside in. A key feature is the stunning picture window.

It was also very important to get the lighting right and to create different moods for each area, depending on how they were being used and when. We achieved this with spotlights, floor lights, LED strips, pendant lights and table lamps. The cocoon hanging fireplace also contributes to the room’s ambience. It acts as an ornament when off, while adding warmth and intimacy when on.
