Abstract

Above presents attic and loft conversions, showing how to work within rooflines, sightlines and ideosyncratic spaces. Behind investigates back extensions and conservatories and suggests how to improve links to the garden, bring the outdoors in or add new architectural statements. Beside examines side extensions, considering smaller, transitional spaces that improve the flow of older or vertical floor layouts, or admit more light into a dark house. Below looks at basements and subterranean levels, revealing how to make the best of restricted space and limited natural light. Around tackles interventions at different points in a house, when extending a property is not simply a question of adding a room to the roof, side or basement. A section at the back of the book focuses on materials - concrete, glass, wood - and building details - windows, stairs, floorlights - for the creative homeowner.
