London studio Office S*M has used cork as cladding, insulation and flooring in this mansard extension to a house in Walthamstow, which is enlivened by bright yellow details.

Aptly named Cork Loft, the extension has created space for an additional bedroom and bathroom, marking the first phase of a wider renovation of the Victorian terraced home.

The homeowners tasked Office S*M with prioritising sustainability in its material choices, which led the studio to "exploring how far cork could go" and using it to replace traditional building materials wherever possible.
