ELEGANT LINES

This project by Emil Eve consists of a new two-storey brick outbuilding for a Victorian property in East London. The entirety of the extended space is enveloped in Petersen bricks, including the floor and boundary walls of the courtyard garden. ‘Through careful and simple detailing, the two-storey extension creates an elegant projection from the rear of the property,’ explains Emma Perkin, director, Emil Eve. ‘The soft natural tones of the brickwork complement the new addition against the London brick of the surrounding properties, with the angled projection mirroring the profiles of the surrounding rooflines.’
