A double story timber frame extension for two flats in the north London.  The project is focused on homegrown or European grown timber species for the majority of the construction in order to both stimulate the UK's own forestry industry as a way to tackle climate change and to increase a sense of well being within the property.  

European oak is used for the curtain wall facade; demountable and recyclable poplar plywood for internal wood panelling - reducing the requirement for wet trade and gypsum plaster; and homegrown ash timber for bespoke kitchen door fronts  - these are fitted onto UK made kitchen carcasses made from recycled chipboard which can be fully recycled at end of use.  

The kitchen worktop is made in the UK from recycled glass and mixed with a solvent-free resin system that is then cast into solid panels.  The flooring is maunfactured in the UK using european engineered oak.
