Windsor.

The tall glass atrium transforms this three-storey townhouse in Windsor and provides a vital connection with the outside from most parts of the home. The existing wall at the rear of the property was removed at ground and first floor level and the glass extension reveals the kitchen and living room, which now become an interconnected space for everyone to enjoy.
