Architectural practice Gruff has designed a contemporary rear extension to a London house. Measuring 30m² (215ft²), the house extension, named Algiers Road, was completed in 2018.
Inside the extension Gruff deliver a variety of beautifully designed spaces including a kitchen, dining area, quiet reading alcove and a sunken lounge area. A warm material palette combined with a series of level changes internally, consciously demarcates the open plan areas; with the deep-blue and polished concrete finishes giving an intimate yet contemporary feel.
Algiers Road delivers an extension that is inviting, open and multi-functional. With the outdoor decking and fireplace encouraging entertaining and relaxation long into the summer nights and the inside providing a variety of warm, flexible spaces for the family that feels spacious and connected to the outdoors.
