A private commission to remodel an existing 1960s bungalow in Marple Bridge, Cheshire. The clients purchased the bungalow with the attraction of a self contained house within a secluded garden that offered lateral living so that the family could enjoy living and working from home. They had an extremely challenging budget for the brief which was to transform the existing bungalow into an extended living space, office, family bathroom and utility room. The challenge of low cost construction for the three bedroom house was achieved by retaining and re-ordering the sleeping block and demolishing the rest of the poorly constructed building, then wrapping the front of this block with a large living/kitchen area. This design offers larger volumes and good natural light. All the materials used were critical to the success of this ethos. Both material and structure had to be economical in application and work to standard building modules.
