Albion Road

The kitchen at the rear of the ground floor was extended to create a more open-plan living space to encompass the dining area as well as the existing kitchen. The homeowners wanted to install a large aspect of glazing to this area as the property was suffering from poor lighting which resulted in a dreary living space.

Alongside various skylights, a 3-track minimal windows® sliding door system was installed with one fixed pane and two sliding panes to create a wide opening leading to the garden. As the minimal windows® system can be hidden within the finishes of the building and it features a flush threshold, the transition between the indoor and outdoor environments is somewhat seamless.

The property now possesses a new light and airy living space that provides the homeowners with uninterrupted views of their garden all year round, as well as creating a highly desired indoor-outdoor living space.
