transforming a townhouse

brighton, east sussex

Our client, a bachelor with an eye for contemporary design, owned a townhouse with an integral 5 (!) car garage. In a prior renovation, this space had been retrofitted to create a games room, but this wasn’t quite what he had in mind for his own home.

Together, we created a solution that converted the former garage into two bedrooms, a luxurious wet room, utility room and storage facilities. We reorganised the first floor by relocating a bathroom. This made room for a large open plan living/dining/kitchen area and allowed for a dramatic connection to the courtyard terrace with a sliding/folding door assembly that opened up completely. Uninterrupted access to the enlarged terrace creates a new external room.

As is standard in all of our projects, we specified high levels of insulation, high-performance windows and doors, AAA rated energy efficient appliances, low flush toilets, low flow rate taps, efficient light fixtures and environmentally friendly paints, helping save energy and reduce carbon emissions.
