Allen Architects extended and altered the internal layout of this basement flat in the ‘Hampstead Conservation Area’, to form an additional 2nd bedroom and open plan living area.
​
The ‘asymmetrical pyramid’ type roof forms low height walls on the boundaries with adjoining properties to address planning constraints, whilst vaulted ceilings internally are topped with a glazed apex above the kitchen and dining space.
​
The extension incorporates contemporary materials in the form of corner glazed sliding aluminium doors and standing seam zinc roof cladding, paired with more traditional ‘parquet floorboards and metro tiles.
