The design response was to emphasise the contrast between old and new, with a simple all-white modern addition that engages with the new rear landscaping through a variety of views. The interior is punctured by a freestanding muted green kitchen, promoting a sense of harmony with the surroundings.

The olive green colour features throughout the design in the leather wrapped window seat, external steelwork and powder room walls. The material palette balances natural and raw materials, keeping all superfluous details to a minimum.
