I can completely understand that when you have a beautiful set of french doors that lead from a perfectly proportioned Victorian sitting room, you might not want to tamper with that heritage feature. The owners of this house in Hampton Hill handled this dilemma by creating an L-shaped open plan kitchen & dining room that allowed for a European-like courtyard between original house and new extension. The stunning reclaimed tiles make the courtyard an additional and unique dining, party or contemplation space.
