The extension adopts a contemporary architectural language, with extensive glazing to the east and south elevations beneath a generous roof overhang, whilst a turfed roof allows the new structure to nestle into the existing banking. The connection to the original dwelling is formed through an extension of the existing catslide roof, creating a considered transition between old and new. 

Internally, the renovation has reimagined the home to better accommodate modern family living. Every bedroom now benefits from its own ensuite, whilst the principal living spaces have been reconfigured to create an open-plan kitchen, dining and snug area. A separate formal lounge provides a more intimate setting, centred around a cherished artwork depicting The Last Supper, giving the interior a personal focal point.

The existing interiors drew significant influence from Japanese design, elements of which the client wished to retain. Natural materials and bold colours have been used throughout the renovation to create a rich, distinctive palette, balancing simplicity with warmth, texture and moments of visual contrast. The result is an interior that respects the character of the original design whilst reflecting the client’s tastes and the evolving needs of the household.

The completed scheme demonstrates how a comprehensive residential renovation can enhance the functionality, character and quality of an existing home. Through the considered integration of contemporary architecture, carefully composed interiors and a sensitive response to the surrounding landscape, Dyehouse has been transformed into a home that balances modern family living with a strong sense of individuality
