About
Our clients approached us to design an extension to this traditional cottage in the village of Menlo. The front of the building was south facing and the solution was to create a double height volume to the rear with large skylights to capture and bring in the light while also creating a large window opening and window seat in the front wall of the cottage. The two storey rear extension cant be seen from the front so it as a pleasant surprise when one walks into the cottage and is greeted by the bright double height kitchen and mezzanine living area. The clients used there own skills to provide the interior decoration and entered the home into the RTE Home Of The Year TV program where it made it to the final 2 houses but was unfortunately beaten by a ‘castle’.
