Jaam Architects work with property specialist Mascot Bespoke and expert joiners Blakes London to transform a Balham family home with a wood clad extension
When a south London family of four decided to upgrade their Balham house into an expansive home with extra living space, an indoor swimming pool and a sauna, they turned to emerging architects Jaam, luxury specialist Mascot Bespoke, and joinery expert Blakes London for help.
‘The client was looking to avoid the pastiche London Stock brick-based extensions that were commonplace within the area,’ explains Chris Scott of Mascot Bespoke Homes. As a result, an intensely collaborative approach between all parties led to the final design that features the rear extension’s impressively sculptural larch cladding, which defines the whole scheme.
‘The cladding by Mascot Bespoke was set at a 45-degree angle and is mitred at the soffit. This increases solar shading while creating a graphic linear language to the elevations,’ Scott says. The wood skin mixes burnt and silvered Scottish larch.
Glazed expanses mix with timber, original brick and soft fabrics to create a home that is both comfortable and modern. The swimming pool, located off the side of the building, under the narrowest part of the garden, features a cleverly angled ceiling that promotes a cosy, cave-like feel, while also allowing views out to the verdant garden – showcasing how this design blends inside and outside in more ways than one.
