The family who live in the home have a long tradition of working in the seed trading business. Our extension connects the home to the adjoining landscape and offers a place for planting.

The roof cantilevers a significant distance to cut and carve the consistent pitched roof form to allow light and views to and from the space. As the sun tracks around in the afternoon the space is filled with light and the shadows of the leaves from the surrounding trees.
