ADS' design for a new timber framed, larch clad, single storey extension in Liss, Hampshire has been granted planning permission by South Downs National Park Planning authority.
The approvals process was a complex one, involving a tree survey report to assess possible damage to a nearby 92 year old, protected lime tree. It was shown that by careful construction and innovative design solutions a successful resolution could be achieved that presented the client with high quality addtional space whilst respecting the local landscape and planting.
The design uses 90mm larch slats, clad to the external envelope, recessed concertina door reveals and a rendered external post for structural purposes that supports the planted green roof and atrium roof light. Internally a wood-burner and a new open plan kitchen / day room provide a simple, yet refined living area that offers transit and connection to the sloped garden exterior deck.
