A bright front porch offers a precursor to the bold timber extension to the rear of this east London house Joining the Wallpaper* Architects’ Directory 2022, our annual list of exciting emerging practices from across the globe, Unknown Works was formed in London five years ago. The studio’s Amethyst, a residential extension in London, showcases the practice’s playful yet thoughtful approach.
‘Unknown Works is fascinated by the human condition, the development of cities, the interactions of social and urban environments and the mechanics of space distribution,’ say the trio.
‘Amethyst considers how each element of a project can expose its true materiality, patina, method of fabrication and structural integrity,’ say the architects. ‘Every part of this family home has purpose and speaks honestly of its origin, coming together as a practical and flexible set of spaces.’ A staggered composition of structural planes ensures openings on the roof bring in plenty of natural light.
