A house extension is often the most cost-effective way of creating more space for an expanding family. Moving to a new house can be expensive and a lack of local options makes this a daunting thought. At Andrew Black Design, we excel in creating innovative solutions to problems with existing houses, whether it is re-configuring a poor layout or extending to create more usable space. From simple kitchen extensions to large glass sun-rooms, we can enhance even the humblest house. We can take you from concept design stage, through planning and building approvals to helping with a trusted local builder.

Working from Dundee but with clients across Scotland, we are an award-winning, contemporary architectural practice providing innovative solutions to a wide range of design challenges. We have formal policies for Quality, Health and Safety, and Environmental Performance to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and OHSAS 18001, and are currently working towards UKAS certified accreditation.

The classic contemporary glass box which brings natural light in to the heart of an existing dark and gloomy interior. The structure is set back from the facade which allows the corner sliding glazed doors to open the extension out to the garden, blurring the boundaries of inside and out. Views are maximised to the garden with the use of frame-less glass. Large areas of glass proved difficult in relation to buildings standards but by upgrading other insulated elements within the house, we overcame this obstacle.
