A private client approached Townsend and Renaudon to replace a tired conservatory with a striking, contemporary extension. The brief was to create a spacious, open-plan living area combining kitchen, dining, and a sitting area — all designed to contrast with the traditional character of the existing cottage.

Located within greenbelt land, the project exceeded the typical 30% volume increase rule. We engaged with local planners early in the process and successfully made the case for approval based on the architectural quality and sensitivity of the design.
