Project overview

This project was the refurbishment and extension of a family home in the Borders.

The existing property underwent extensive renovations, including opening up the side wall to create a seamless transition into the modern glass and timber extension, which offers open views across the surrounding landscape.

The extension features a hybrid portalised steel frame and timber frame panels, enabling open plan spaces with a striking glass gable. Clad in timber with a metal corrugated roof, the extension beautifully blends contemporary design with the natural surroundings.

This thoughtful combination of materials and structural elements not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also ensures durability and energy efficiency for the home.
