Swanson HomesThere are two additional bedrooms in the lower level, a full shared bath with spacious custom vanity, storage space, and a walk-in shower. Both bedrooms have full walk-in closets as well!
Swanson HomesThe owner’s bathroom features two vanities with Calico White Q-Quartz countertops, a large format porcelain tile walk-in shower, and a large free-standing tub. Our favorite feature in this bath is the heated floor tiles, a luxurious addition for those cold Minnesota winters!

Extend off the rear, the side and into the roof working with the existing fabric to yield a higher value, super flexible home that is future proofed.
The Brief
Create a relaxing, inspirational home by the sea for family holidays and entertaining. Extend the property within permitted development guidance and use as much of the existing fabric as possible specifying new or low energy materials and systems wherever possible.
Our Solution
The proverbial bungalow on the South coast, a much-maligned house type, one rarely developed in a contemporary way but one with much to offer.
We loved the idea of developing a system for overhauling, extending and refurbishing this house type that could be replicated in the local area with external cladding options and very efficient space planning.
The budget was, as ever, limiting and so some specific solutions had to be found to price/spec/aesthetic conundrums. The result is a very crisp and interesting exterior, understated with a tardis like series of internal spaces. We extended at loft level UP, ground floor rear OUT, and into the garage SIDE which has enabled us to create 5/6 bedroom and flexible use spaces; a large dining; kitchen and living space; a utility/boot-room; entrance lobby; plant room/store and generous circulation. 2 bedrooms are en-suite and light pours in everywhere which gives the house a luxurious feel.
We’re on the Scandi bandwagon too (for the interior) mixing timber, warm tones, homemade fixtures and lighting to create moods throughout.
2017 sees the completion of the garden with Andy Steadman Designs and entry to several competitions to promote the scheme and its approach.
This project is currently the subject of lots of social media coverage and is featured in August 2017 Ideal Home magazine.
We are hoping this opens the door to other beachside projects as does the builder and his team!

猫と建築社「曲線が好き」という施主のリクエストに応え、玄関を入った正面の壁を曲面にし、その壁に合わせて小さな飾り棚を作った。
その壁の奥には大容量のシューズクローク。靴だけでなくベビーカーなど様々なものを収納出来る。
家族の靴や外套などは全てここに収納出来るので玄関は常にすっきりと保つことが出来る。
ブーツなどを履く時に便利なベンチも設置した。
猫と建築社玄関には大きなシューズクロークが併設されている。
玄関→ウォークインクローゼット→洗面→リビングという動線により、室内にウィルスや花粉を持ち込みにくいよう配慮。人間だけでなく、室内飼いの猫も外部からのウィルスに感染するリスクを減らせる。衣類が猫の毛だらけにならないというメリットも。
