Matthew Giles Architects reworks suburban house with timber – clad extensions.

The project’s design aims to create a seamless transition between the existing and new elements, blending them into a cohesive whole. This is achieved through careful consideration of the existing building’s form, materials, and spatial relationships. The new additions are designed to complement the existing structure, rather than compete with it. The design also incorporates elements of sustainability, such as solar panels and rainwater harvesting. The project’s design philosophy is rooted in a desire to create a home that is both beautiful and functional.

The project aimed to achieve a significant reduction in energy consumption and carbon emissions. The project team worked with a local architect to design a passive house standard. The project team also worked with a local energy company to install solar panels on the roof. The project team also worked with a local contractor to install a rainwater harvesting system. The project team also worked with a local contractor to install a ground source heat pump.
