Services
Residential Extensions
We design and implement bespoke residential extensions that maximise space usability while respecting architectural context. Our projects include rear extensions for Victorian properties and loft conversions in conservation areas. By creating open-plan layouts and incorporating transparent materials, we enhance natural light and spatial flow to improve living environments.
Commercial Refurbishments
Our commercial refurbishment services focus on modernising workspaces while maintaining structural integrity. We specialise in integrating contemporary elements with existing layouts, as demonstrated in our school gym development and civic building renovations. Solutions include optimising skylight dimensions and creating accessible, transparent spaces that align with modern usage requirements.
Heritage Projects
We deliver sensitive heritage interventions that balance preservation with functional upgrades. Our Kensington loft conversion project reduced solid ceiling areas in favour of glass elements while complying with conservation area regulations. We maintain historical accuracy through careful material selection and design approaches that respect original architectural features.
