Open plan kitchen, dining, and living space with glazed roof extension
An interior precedent for a residential open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space illuminated by a dramatic side-return glass roof.
- What we like about this project
- The glazed roof extends right up against the existing neighboring brick wall, creating a striking contrast between weathered exterior brick and clean interior plaster.

- Geometry
- Deep rectangular open-plan layout flanked by a long dining zone on one side, kitchen island centrally in the back, and a living area in the foreground.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame supporting the overhead sloped glass roof extension alongside masonry party walls.
- Spatial scale
- Generous residential open-plan space with standard single-story ceiling height transitioning under a taller glass-roofed side return.
- Lighting
- Bright natural daylight flooding in from the overhead structural glass roof, complemented by three pendant lights over the kitchen island and warm wall sconces.
- Atmosphere
- Bright, calm, and welcoming with natural wood and soft cream textures catching abundant overhead daylight.
- Environmental context
- Interior domestic open-plan space with visible neighboring brick wall faces through the overhead structural glass.
- Spatial experience
- A bright, light-filled long volume where the sloped glass roof washes the side wall with continuous daylight, opening deeply into the rear kitchen.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating dining chairs and island stools create a steady horizontal rhythm anchored against the chevron flooring pattern.
