\nin the modern era of residential space planning one has to balance this large volume of space with a scale that instils a feeling of warmth. By creating 3 distinct rooms of Basement play; Front ground living & Rear ground kitchen \/ dining on 3 di erent levels, we have achieved a sense of scale and intimacy whilst visually linking each through an open stairs design.<\/p>\n

Furthermore the use of large syklights and the positioning of new windows to the extension lter light where needed whilst providing glimpses of the outside that serve the new basement. The combination of distinct rooms, natural light and a visual connection between these spaces, both inside and out, makes for a warm and open living space.<\/p>\n
