Our proposal at Gifford was to convert and extend a farm workers cottage to almost double the footprint while preserving the original character of the building. We aimed to create a more spacious and comfortable living environment that would better meet the needs of the owners. To achieve this, we suggested moving the kitchen and living areas to the new part of the building, which would allow us to create a larger and more open living space. In addition, we proposed creating a master suite in half of the original building, which would provide the owners with a more private and luxurious sleeping area. Overall, our proposal aimed to create a more functional and attractive living space that would enhance the owners’ quality of life
