At Old Rotherhithe, Ash Sakula reimagine and extend a typical London terraced house
Quietly introducing an extra bedroom while only using 6.5m² of space. A nature-filled rain-and - light - well channels fresh air and light into the heart of the plan, wrapped around by a sociable kitchen/dining /living room. Converting a former bedroom into a bright, spacious family bathroom is a surprising move, but one that frees up space in the rest of the plan
hile providing fresh air and heat management in this well-insulated home. This fast-paced, self-build project re-imagines the potential of a small, awkwardly positioned terraced house as a prototype for retrofitting London’s terraces into sustainable, sociable, adaptable homes.
