Here comes the sun

Dartmouth Park House transforms a poorly subdivided and overdeveloped end-ofterrace Victorian building. The ground floor and basement were devoid o f natural light, while the house above enjoyed a rear terrace with views. The brief started as a modest intervention to improve the ground floor and evolved into a substantial spatial redevelopment on four levels. The courtyard creates an outdoor room, while a new vertical void links the street to the terrace and gardens.
