Square Feet Architects: This family of six had outgrown the existing footprint of their house, with the small crowded kitchen being the focal point of their family life. Square Feet Architects resolved their space dilemma by removing an internal wall between the kitchen and adjacent living room to create one larger open plan kitchen-dining-living space.

We were also able to obtain planning permission to extend the room by three metres to the rear of the property, creating an L-shaped space with ample size to site a large dining table with views of the garden.The family now enjoy an open plan living area encompassing relaxed seating, kitchen and dining with a generous sunlit reading corner.
