Quatrefoil House / Hyde + Hyde Architects
Briefly

"The retrofit-led approach sought to celebrate and prioritize the restoration of the retainable historic fabric, while completing a significant upgrade to transform this into a family home, for 21st-century living."
"Navigating the site's level changes, the new volume is supported by a steel structure that allows it to cantilever above a rear garden - exploring new and old to reflect the change in technological realities between now and the 1870s."
"Playing with the relationship between solid and void, the otherwise glazed extension turns its back to the street with a brick façade, to provide privacy and match the unpunctured language of the original brickwork."
