Little Spinney

Little Spinney is located in a Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in East Sussex. The existing 1970’s home was in need of a larger kithcen/dining entertainment space that was fit for a 4-bedroom family home. AB.Co achieved planning for a sustainable, contemporary timber extension, that sat delicately next to the main house and features a large expanse of corner glazing to make the most of the lush views over the river beyond.

IMAGERY
AB.Co

The natural oak extension is expressed with a calm rhythm of vertical fins, giving texture and depth to its façade. It sits lightly on a red brick plinth that visually ties it to the brickwork of the main house. The site’s steep topography from front to back is resolved through a new red brick stepped landscape, providing a gentle connection to the garden. A raised patio extends from the main living space, creating an elevated terrace for outdoor seating and views across the picturesque landscape.
