Kitchen Extension Gallery
By Claire Lloyd
The open plan kitchen/diner is a modern-day staple, but in some homes, extending outwards is the only way of gaining the space required for one. Claire Lloyd looks at six fine examples of the art

The Orangery, West London
Designer: Hamilton-King
Photographer: Geraint Davis
A light and airy orangery-style kitchen suits this Victorian house well. The neat modern kitchen is made from hardwearing units and surfaces, perfect for hectic family life.
The Garden Kitchen, Hertfordshire
Kitchen Designer: Wilson Fink
House Design and Structural Engineer: Sage Design
With two sides of bi-fold doors, this kitchen can be opened to become part of the garden. Natural materials bring warmth to cool modern kitchen units and surfaces.
The Seamless Addition, North London
Designer: TG Studio
This extension to an Arts & Crafts home has created extra space, but looks like an original part of the building. The High-gloss kitchen units reflect light around the room.
The Pavilion, London
Designer: Liddicoat & Goldhill
The new extension is a lot brighter than its 1960s predecessor, and provides a sizeable space for a sleek monochrome kitchen.
The Urban Extension, London
Designer: Cue & Co
This modern extension is stepped down from the existing house to define the old from the new sections of the building. Traditional features in the contemporary kitchen create links with the past.
The Natural Addition, East Sussex
Designer: The Oak Designs Company
By using an oak frame, the owners of this historic barn have been able to accent its rural charm. The new fitted kitchen exudes clean country style.
