Protruding bricks texture the walls of this extension to an early 20th-century house in north London, which was designed by Pamphilon Architects for a fashion designer client.
The east London studio added the brick extension to the rear of the terraced house in the borough of Harringay, expanding its small existing kitchen.
The studio named the project Lacy Brick after the arrangement of protruding and receding red bricks used to form the extension's outer walls.
"This is a quirky house, an Edwardian terrace that has been sliced off at an angle by the adjoining road, resulting in an unusual internal layout and small kitchen that is rather out of balance with the rest of the house," said architect Anna Pamphilon.
"We felt that a brick addition would be the most sensitive to the original building, and knew that we wanted a red brick to compliment the existing red brick headers above the patio doors and red bricks of the chimney and side elevations," she added.
工作室与客户在密切合作下确定了砖的立面图案以及室内装饰，并以明亮黄色橱柜和单色地板为特点。
“客户是一位时尚设计师，喜欢各种纹理、颜色，包括我们在项目中想传达的趣味性”，建筑师说道。
The studio worked closely with the client to determine the brickwork pattern, as well as the interior finishes, which feature accents of bright colour including acid-yellow cabinets and monochrome flooring.
"The client is a fashion designer and has a love of texture, colour and fun which we wanted to convey within the project," said the architect.
“选择保持扩展紧凑，我们希望扩展部分在预算紧张的情况下尽可能凸显宝石的效果”。
“在探索了许多种风格后，我们决定以佛兰德形式在上面铺设砖，凸起的砖统称为‘花边砖’图案”。
"Having chosen to keep the extension compact we wanted the extension to be as jewel-like as possible whilst being very careful with the budget which was tight," she added.
"After exploring many styles we decided upon laying the bricks in a flemish bond with protruding headers creating what we referred to together as a 'lacy brick' pattern."
橡木门框上一系列的玻璃将扩展部分与花园连接，同时座椅与窗户结合布置，并提供了采集自然光照的天窗。
在砖砌部分下，扩展部分的木框架裸露在外。天花板梁被用来挂彩色软线连接的一排吊灯配件。
A set of glass doors with oak frames connects the extension to the garden, while a window with an integrated seat and a skylight offer plenty of natural lighting.
Under the brickwork, the extension's timber frame has been left exposed. The ceiling beams are used to hang a row of pendant light fittings on coloured flexes.
