A Seamless Blend of Heritage and Modern Craftsmanship: Victorian Terrace Transformed
Tucked away on Defoe Road, this stunning extension breathes new life into a Victorian terraced house, with a design that thoughtfully balances tradition and modernity. Pensaer’s comprehensive vision encompasses not only the architecture but also the landscaping, interiors, and bespoke joinery, creating a unified experience that feels both contemporary and timeless.
Drawing inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright, the extension features a refined palette of oak and green metal accents that inject warmth and texture into the space. The design is split into two distinct elements of joinery: the first, a sensitive extension that respects the original character of the home, and the second, an internal refurbishment that reimagines its layout for modern living. The contemporary textures of the cabinetry and fixtures contrast beautifully with the intricate detailing of the Victorian architecture, establishing a harmonious dialogue between the old and the new.
Bathed in natural light, the open-plan living areas seamlessly extend into the garden, dissolving the line between interior and exterior. The thoughtfully designed landscape, inspired by Wright's organic principles, creates a serene outdoor sanctuary, elevating this home as a true example of holistic, considered design.
