Atelier Baulier's Frugal Approach to London Home Extension with Plywood and Plaster
By
Jon Astbury
Slow-proofed and worth the wait. Worth its weight in flour.
Summary
Atelier Baulier renovated and extended an Edwardian home in London's Ealing borough using a 'frugal and honest' approach with minimally-finished materials like plywood and plaster. The project, called Twin Pitches, addressed the original home's poor environmental performance and insufficient space while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic with raw, unfinished surfaces.
