Extensions
An extension changes more than the size of a home. It can change its light, proportions, circulation, outlook and relationship to the site. The key decision is not simply where to add space, but what form that space should take.
Avalon explores whether the right response is a seamless continuation of the original character or a contemporary addition with a clear identity of its own. Both can work beautifully when the design is guided by the home, the site and the way you want to live.
Extension options
Ground-floor and Side Extensions
A practical way to enlarge living areas, add bedrooms or improve connection to the garden when the site allows.
Upper-level Extensions
Useful on tighter blocks and where an upper level can unlock views, privacy or a clearer separation of living and sleeping zones.
Elevated
Extensions
Well suited to sloping and coastal sites, with the potential to create useful space beneath for parking, storage or sheltered outdoor living.
Character-matched or Contemporary
Original forms and details can be continued, or new work can provide a deliberate contrast. Avalon helps assess the design, cost and practical implications of each direction.
Plan the extension as part of the whole home
The new footprint needs to solve the original problem rather than simply add floor area. Avalon considers connections, ceiling heights, windows, outdoor access, structure and future use so the addition improves the entire home.
