They also required and additional 3 bedrooms improve the master bedroom and form an open plan kitchen, family room and dining area. We identified that by extending the apex of the existing roof and forming a large cupola above a 2 storey atrium we could bring daylight down into the centre of the deep house plan. Careful planning allowed the 3 new first floor bedrooms to have views over the rear garden and form a sculptural composition of solid planes with punched opening and framed glazing. The composition is a contemporary interpretation of classical Golden Section proportioning.
