To make a restoration about the original design to a Georgian townhouse in central London, Henning Stummel Architects start to design an extension that placed entire of the bathroom facilities into their private structural which exist on the house and accessible via the opening that extended to the existing places of fire on the first three levels. The house in example illustration is typically defined with an typology, so it makes a big deal of difference about the new and the old one with valid recommendation from the ‘Society for Protection of Ancient Buildings’.
The architects also wants to make this house reversible so the extension able to be removed. That is a long tradition of timber extension to Georgian buildings that must be kept. Camouflage idea will be consistently distributed for this house but it will available for random area. Plywood will cover inside and outside the give rigidity to its wall which allowed us to scatter horizontal slots across the façade. The ply acts like a stress skin, and the loading is taken on detours on its way down. This house also offers two bathrooms and a toilet or utility room which need no permanently habitable and require no conventional windows too. The rooms have discreet trickle ventilation and mechanical extracts. There is wet rooms too with a water resistant wall has been finished well. The wall completely covered which will eliminate all ledges that would have collected damp or dust.
