GARAGE CONVERSION ANNEXE | BARROW-UPON-SOAR
The Brief:
​
My client, a young woman in her 20s, was moving back to her family home following a spell living and working in London. With numerous siblings, additional space needed to be made in the house so the integrated garage was designated as a space to convert. From this relatively small space (the equivalent of a double garage, my brief was to plan and create concepts for a space which comprised sleeping area, work space, small kitchenette, sufficient wardrobe space for an extensive collection of clothes and shoes and en-suite shower room.
As the builder was already engaged and due to start imminently, this project had a fast start and quick turnaround.

Project complete:
Layout was a really critical element to this project as we had a lot to fit into a small space and it still needed to feel comfortable and spacious.

The walk in wardrobe was an absolute triumph and a real added bonus. Knowing my clients passion for fashion, I wanted to ensure she had a suitable space for housing her 'collection'. With clever configuration, we squeezed in a modestly sized walk in wardrobe alongside the en-suite. We kitted it out with Ikea Pax wardrobes for maximum flexibility, and ultimately, affordability.
The en-suite bathroom, with its practical sliding door was tiled in shades of dusty pink, black and white. Matt black accents kept the bathroom fresh and modern
