The story

The story behind the work.

Cork House extends and converts a South London Victorian terrace, combining a rear extension and loft conversion co-created with a family.

A stepped internal landscape links front and garden levels while naturally stained cork clads the extension and insulates without expanded foam. The project was completed in winter 2018 and shortlisted for the AJ Small Projects Award 2019.
