Progress on site at Bexley...

This original single storey cottage is being dramatically transformed and opened up to the views and glimpses of the 5m high sandstone cliffs to the side and rear. Having been conceived in pre-covid times, the design evolved to respond to post-covid building industry hurdles. The latest of which happened two months into the build due to the 6 week wait for the value-engineered roof trusses. By quickly deciding to change to a site built roof that was framed within a few days, the owners were able to incorporate the dramatic cathedral roof and gable end triangular windows that had been originally envisaged, making the absolute most of an opportunity for the rear living/dining/kitchen to feel bigger again than the sum of its parts with the expansive sky views.
