A family house in the West Putney conservation area, built for a couple with four children. EMR Architecture reconfigured every floor and every room. Only the original staircase stayed.

At the rear, a 65-square-metre extension holds the living, kitchen and dining space. The sliding doors are 2.7 metres tall and seven metres wide, and an oriel window on the side picks up more daylight. In the loft we built a dormer that EMR describe as a first for the local planning authority.

A new garage went up as well, sized for the family’s ten bicycles and the plant room. The kitchen, joinery and soft furnishings were all designed bespoke by EMR.

The Independent featured the house. Three years later we were back on site for the same clients, digging out a 70-square-metre basement. It holds a media room, a guest bedroom and en-suite, a cloakroom and a wine cellar.
