The garden office in the grounds of this Suffolk retreat was underused so, with a growing family, the owners wanted to convert it to accommodate their sons when they visit. The family commissioned Architect John Denny to produce the design and us to build it.
Although this was principally an interior refit, structural work was an important component. A complex steel frame was set into the existing walls to support the mezzanine floor and floating staircase. The beautiful existing porcelain tiled floor was to be retained so great care was needed to preserve it during building the works.
