Proctor & Shaw are the design brains behind this striking part-two storey rear extension. The property, in South London, now features a full-width span of sliding glazed doors across the back of the house, connecting the kitchen-dining space with the garden. A gravity-defying timber pod has been added above the kitchen to extend the first floor. It creates a dramatic focal feature for the lower storey and rear elevation. Custom rooflights connect the hanging pod with the ceiling of the lower storey, maximising natural light gain.
