All that glazing on the West face means it will really overheat in the summer afternoons, FYI
Luckily our architect lives on our street with a house on the same side of the road.
Hopefully she'll know what's necessary and how big an issue it may be.
We were considering some kind of pergola thing over the patio that we could grow wisteria/passion flowers over anyway which might provide some shade (and privacy).

Our extension plans are starting to take shape.
Current frontrunner in terms of design is one with a pitched roof, but I've just seen a design I like that makes a flat roof one look a bit less boring.
Has anyone here done a flat roof extension with a green roof?
I think something like the flat roof design below, but when you look out of the window you see some kind of greenery, would look great.
