Green Roof Extension

A new rear extension replaces an existing addition to a house in Ghent. The former extension contained small, enclosed rooms that limited natural light and created little connection to the garden.

The new intervention introduces a more open layout designed to improve spatial flow and bring light and air deeper into the home. By opening the ground floor toward the garden and introducing large windows and a rooflight, the extension transforms the living experience of the house.

The new layout centres around a kitchen and dining area that connects directly to the outdoor terrace and garden. The extension is finished with a green roof, improving the environmental performance of the house.
