2 CHADWICK ROAD, WESTCLIFF-ON-SEA
Family House
Our clients had a vision of creating a family home achieving design features that all parties desired. We were given a brief to achieve a contemporary dwelling with Victorian features to three of the main elevations. Internally our clients wished to achieve 3 levels and gain the maximum amount of floor space achievable while maintaining the principle form of a two-storey dwelling.

Solution
Working with the existing structure restricted the design process and the overall concept. A replacement dwelling provided the opportunity of working on a blank canvas which then enabled us to achieve all the elements of a modern family dwelling which was the brief. Replacement dwellings have the added incentive to make a saving on VAT on materials and products which are supplied and fitted. To achieve the three-storey element while maintaining the characteristic of the area, a crown roof was located over with large crittall window gables.
