A radical transformation of a narrow Victorian terraced house. The project completely re-imagined the house by demolishing the existing extensions to rebuild a new rear extension, remodelling the first and second floors, and adding a roof terrace facing the garden. The new ground floor is a single, complex, flexible and narrative space that allows for living, working, and up to four people practising under a round roof light. It is composed of a rectangular volume carved and modelled by a wood and glass cube -the kitchen- a triangular wooden wedge -the stair and services- and a cylinder - a deep roof light. 

This project is an extended investigation of narrative, complex, open living spaces. There are no doors or corridors on the ground floor: the entrance hall unfolds and is part of the rest of the house, navigating between an angled wood box and a squared wood-glass box, which in turn contain all the services that a contemporary house needs.
