Upper Addison Gardens
Holland Park, W14
Project
Upper Addison Gardens is a glulam framed addition to a top floor flat in Holland Park. The extension offers open plan living beneath an exposed timber ceiling with a terrace enjoying views out over the rooftops of West London.
Almost doubling the size of the property, the upward extension has enabled a tired looking one bedroom flat to transform into a modern three bedroom duplex.
The roof addition, constructed entirely of timber, sees three primary seven metre glulam beams span across from one party wall to the other.
Weighing one third of their steel section equivalent, these three primary timbers alone have sequestered 480 kg of C02 and saved one tonne of carbon when compared to the emission of embodied C02 from if they had been constructed in steel.
