Scaffolding Board House

“Scaffolding Board House” is an extension / refurbishment project to a terraced house near Whitechapel for a young couple – a chef and electrician, who wished to have a house that aligned with their philosophy on sustainability. In addition to scaffolding boards as the main structure, the house is full of reclaimed and re-used materials from within and without the site. The existing ground floor layout was extended and reconfigured, with the scaffolding boards providing a structural rhythm through the space comprising kitchen, larder, dining space, sitting room and WC. A first-floor extension provided an additional bedroom.
