Structural Opening & Open-Plan Reconfiguration

A wide structural opening formed between the living area and a rear dining space, with the steel concealed, the reveals squared off and flooring and decoration carried through so the two rooms read as one.

Knocking through is a small amount of demolition and a large amount of making good. The finish is judged entirely on the reveals, the ceiling junction and whether the floor runs through without a threshold — so that is where the time goes.
