Services
Residential extensions
We design side, rear, and multi-storey extensions that maximise space and natural light while respecting original architectural styles. Our solutions enhance functionality and property value through bespoke layouts and materials tailored to client needs. Projects include complex structural changes and integration with gardens.
Listed building restoration
Specialist restoration of listed properties maintains historical integrity while modernising interiors for contemporary living. We navigate strict planning regulations to preserve original features like oak beams and stone floors, ensuring compliance without compromising usability or aesthetic appeal.
New build designs
From contemporary one-off houses to traditional-style dwellings, we create energy-efficient new builds that harmonise with their surroundings. Our designs prioritise spatial flow, natural light, and integration with landscapes, using sustainable materials and innovative architectural details.
Interior design
We reconfigure internal layouts to improve flow and functionality, including kitchen-dining-living open-plan conversions and bespoke storage solutions. Our approach balances aesthetics with practical needs, enhancing comfort and usability through lighting, material, and furniture choices.
Feasibility studies
We assess development potential through dimensional surveys and planning constraints analysis, providing cost-effective strategies for extensions, conversions, or new builds. This includes advising on permitted development rights and preparing detailed proposals to secure planning approval.
