modern extensions

WITH STRIKING USE OF COLOUR, MATERIALS AND SHAPE, THE LATEST DESIGNS ADD SO MUCH MORE THAN AN EXTRA ROOM

- Aditi Sharma Maheshwari

‘Light is a crucial consideration when it comes to planning an extension. Introducing natural light where possible is a must and this can be done in a variety of ways, from roof lanterns and flat Velux windows to sloped glazing, which gives a contemporary feel. A good extension design will take into account how the light moves, changes and lessens over the day and factor in where to boost natural light and where to introduce light fixtures.’
