Text description provided by the architects. A series of stepped levels and angular windows designed by Proctor and Shaw open the ground floor of an Edwardian terrace house onto a quiet leafy garden in South West London. The clients charged Proctor and Shaw with the task of connecting the ground floor to the 1.2m dropped rear garden, challenging the architects’ to bring as much light and height into the new extension as possible.

An existing leaky PVC conservatory was demolished to make way for a series of new interior levels. Proctor and Shaw lowered the ground floor significantly and designed a sequence of stepped plateaus expanding the height, light and volume of the space. The gentle sloping steps allow the clients to make a gradual, controlled descent into the garden through distinct yet connected kitchen, dining, and outdoor terrace zones.
Proctor & Shaw has completed an L-shaped extension with angular glazing that connects a terraced house in southwest London to its leafy garden.
The Quarter Glass House project overseen by London studio Proctor & Shaw involved the refurbishment of ground-floor spaces at an Edwardian property in Wimbledon Park.

The new extension replaces a leaky PVC conservatory at the rear of the terraced house. It contains a kitchen and dining area designed to fulfil the client s request for spaces with as much light and height as possible.
The project involved lowering the floor level throughout the entrance level and creating a gradually stepped transition towards a rear garden that is 1.2 metres lower.
