A proposed one bedroom
dwelling on the site of a redundant
domestic garage,
to the rear of a Victorian Terrace.
A discrete insertion of a new two
storey structure behind the face of
the existing stone boundary wall,
accessed via an inner courtyard. Introspective
in character providing an inner private
escape, in contrast with busy city
life. The new building is subservient
in its appearance to the surrounding
existing dwellings and provides a
backdrop for new vegetation in an
area which would benefit from greening.
The aim was to respond to the need
for sensitive and appropriate infill
within an urban location to enable
sustainable use of brownfield land.
