First Floor Addition with External Polystyrene Facade Panels

Project Case Study

Our client approached us with a specific requirement to expand their living space without compromising on the integrity of their existing property. After a thorough analysis of the site and extensive discussions with the client, we devised an innovative solution: an elegant first floor addition that harmoniously blends with the existing structure.

External Polystyrene Facade Panels:
To maintain a lightweight and cost-effective addition, we decided to incorporate external polystyrene facade panels for the upper floor. These panels not only provided excellent insulation but also contributed to the aesthetic appeal of the overall design. The rendered finish added a touch of sophistication and modernity to the facade, creating a seamless integration between the existing and new elements of the building.

Preserving Traditional Features:
While embracing modern architectural elements, we were keen to preserve the traditional features of the property. By utilizing a gable and carefully crafted woodwork, we were able to maintain the timeless charm of the facade. The combination of traditional and contemporary design elements created a visually striking composition that delighted both our client and our team.
