St. Bernards Row
St. Bernards Row
This extension to a listed house was perceived as a garden pavilion, slightly seperated, yet still connected to the existing house.
It provides an informal family area for sitting and dining as well as a utility room and garden storage.
It is a composition of simple elements: a reconstructed garden wall, three timber boxes and a curved plate roof canopy to bridge the space between.
The spaces left between these elements are glazed in panels that open up fully for sunny days. The largest of the three boxes contains an ingle nook where the family can sit snugly round a stove, contrasting with the light and open living space between the elements. This box also contains a utility room and kitchen storage. The smaller boxes contain garden storage and a drinks cabinet.
