A London Edwardian House with a Light-Filled Kitchen Extension

Located close to Hollow Ponds in London lies this beautiful semi-detached Edwardian house that was carefully redesigned to blend period features with a contemporary kitchen extension.

The renovation preserved the building’s heritage while adding a light and spacious kitchen extension where refined Scandinavian and Moroccan influences were introduced to the home. The result is a wonderful blend of old and new, light and dark.
