This extension and alteration to a Grade ll-listed Victorian home in Hampstead, London, is built almost entirely of glass, topped with a crisp, marble-clad canopy. The structure consists of the rear wall along the boundary, a steel column set back behind the glazing, and a steel box frame to support the sliding rooflight. The internal flooring extends out on to the terrace past flush tracks for the sliding doors. Frameless glazing sits between the existing house and the extension to articulate the new area. The dark former kitchen area was transformed into a John Soane-inspired timber-panelled lounge, creating a transition between the listed building and the glass extension.
