Extensions
We design contemporary extensions that enhance Victorian and period properties while maintaining architectural integrity. Our solutions maximise natural light and create seamless indoor-outdoor connections through features like folding-sliding doors and glazed facades. Projects include rear and side extensions in conservation areas using zinc cladding and other modern materials that complement traditional buildings.
Loft Conversions
Our loft conversion service creates functional living spaces within existing roof structures. We specialise in adding Juliette balconies, ensuite bathrooms, and walk-in wardrobes while ensuring compliance with building regulations. Recent projects demonstrate our ability to combine permitted development rights with creative design solutions for 1950s properties and Victorian houses.
New Build
We develop sustainable new build housing schemes on brownfield sites, focusing on high-quality residential design. Our expertise includes creating multi-unit developments with private amenity spaces and communal gardens. Current projects showcase our commitment to modern, functional living spaces that integrate with their surroundings while meeting contemporary environmental standards.
Refurbishment
Our refurbishment service modernises historic properties while preserving their character. We transform 18th-century mews houses and rural farmhouses through open-plan layouts, exposed timber structures, and contemporary interior design. Each project balances heritage conservation with modern living requirements to create stylish, functional spaces that respect original architectural features.
