Introducing natural light
This Georgian-era home was in terrible condition when Turner Architects were brought in to make it liveable again. “The house was leaking and had been left empty for more than 10 years,” says Paul Turner, director at the practice. “Our goal was to uncover the existing features and reinstate the original layout.” The project also sought to expand the footprint of the property via a new rear extension, allowing the communal family areas to be relocated to the back of the house.
The extension was conceived around an internal courtyard, which provides a serene outdoor space at the heart of the house. This design feature also helps channel natural light into the centre
