3 LIGHT TOUCH

When the owners of this house embarked on their refurbishment and extension, they were keen to retain as many of the property’s characterful period details as possible, including the bay window looking out onto the back garden. Forgeworks reinterpreted the space as a built-in window seat, which has become a social space to enjoy coffee with friends. The plywood bench seat has been finished with white wax to maintain the light feel of the material over time. Concrete flooring, which wraps over the step leading to the window seat, was chosen to add an industrial edge.
