Location of property: Chiswick
Eastbury Grove W4 2JZ
Local planning borough: Hounslow

Project brief: This Victorian property had a small kitchen with an unused alleyway running down the side. The client wanted to increase the size of the kitchen to create a family space that would be flexible to adapt as the children grew up. The client also wanted to create a space with lots of natural light.

The result: By infilling the side return of the property a larger kitchen was created. The ground floor space was reconfigured to include an open plan seating area and kitchen. Sliding doors provide access to the garden from the kitchen and flow as one space in the summer.
