Kettled twice. Extra chewy, extra trustworthy.
Summary
OEB Architects designed a full-width extension for a family home in Tottenham, north London, creating a spacious kitchen and dining area. The project, named 'A Simple Addition,' features a minimalist 'blank canvas' design with simple materials like timber, plywood, and concrete, allowing the homeowners to personalize the space over time. The extension replaces a typical L-shaped design with a full-width shed structure that maximizes natural light and creates a flexible living area.
