Durant Street
MTA won planning permission to extend and refurbish the end-of-terrace house on Durant Street, Shoreditch. In addition to creating a ground floor rear infill extension with large glazed doors and glazed roof and a full internal refurbishment, the clients wanted their new home to be bold and bursting with character and eye-catching finishes.
The once inefficient and low-ceiling kitchen was been completely trasformed and opened up into an open-plan kitchen and dining room with a large glazed roof and brand new patio doors finished in a bold dark orange colour, matched by the exposed structural steel traversing the space. The entire ground level is a celebration of oak and oak veneer joinery, tieing the floor together with delicate detailing. Natural light floods the ground floor, bringing all elements and finishes together, from the more subtle wall paint colours in the extension to the bolder ones in the refurbished reception rooms.
The rear extension has opened up the house’s spatial flexibility and provided a much improved rear garden access while the first floor is characterised by playful colour choices and high ceilings with built-in storage.
MTA worked closely with the client and their chosen contractor, JP Project Management, to provide a well-finished and clean final scheme with attention to detail and finishes to achieve a beautiful home.
