The proposal consists of a glazed screen that runs between the existing party walls with a simple flat roof and glazed rooflight above.

The eaves of the roof have been carefully detailed to mask the depth of the flat roof and provide a neat edge to the rainwater gulley. Similarly at ground level the floor level is continuous. A grated rainwater drain creates a flush junction between inside and outside surface.

On entering the house a large window allows long views of the garden. These are emphasised by a long uninterrupted concrete worktop that runs the length of the proposal and emerges into the garden where it becomes a barbeque and seating area. The whole of this zone is top lit via a continuous rooflight, equal in width to the worktop .
