After designing a modern extension on this property a few years, I was delighted to be invited to assist in designing a new pool house & rumpus room for its new owners. We have added a new alfresco space that is well connected to the existing pool and a short stroll from the stacking entry doors from the existing home. We have retained the location of the existing retaining walls & steps to keep the existing garden intact, with the deck slightly elevated to give it a floating feel. The owners currently enjoy sitting in a narrow North-facing porch area and wanted to add a sitting space similar to this in the new works. The building has a modern feel that reflects the modernised feel of the existing cottage and its more recent extension at the front. The gardens that wrap around the building are featured inside as well with floor-to-ceiling glass and that deck just floating over the landscape. Thou the new building is designed for exercise and rumpus room uses it is also designed for flexibility, with a small kitchenette, powder room & storage room. A great little design project and one we are looking forward to seeing in construction.
