This 1960s house sits on an amazing site on the edge of an Oxfordshire woodland.

A new pitched volume was added to complement the existing building. It creates a contemporary living space  with greater connection to the landscape with generous glazing that engages with the ever-changing woodland backdrop.

The existing house was over-clad with insulation and finished in vertical larch cladding. Easter white cedar shingles which will pale with time and left untreated match the extension. Triple glazing and corrugated tin roofs create a dialogue between the two volumes.
