West Annandale Street by Tim Bayman Architecture

Shortlisted for the Architects' Journal Small Projects Award, this home and office by Tim Bayman Architecture sees the refurbishment of an existing ground floor and basement property adjacent to a neighbouring Victorian terraced house in Edinburgh. A new pitched standing seam roof and lightwell, forming an additional mezzanine level, has been created on the ground floor alteration. The interior is now flooded with light from the new addition and finished with accents of bright yellow metal work.
