Services
New Build Design
We specialise in creating bespoke new build properties tailored to individual requirements. Our services include feasibility studies, 3D architectural modelling, planning applications, and detailed construction drawings. With experience in both residential and commercial projects, we deliver modern, functional spaces that maximise site potential while maintaining budgetary constraints. Our recent projects include detached houses and housing developments.
Extensions
Our extension services focus on enhancing living spaces while maintaining architectural harmony. We handle all aspects from initial design consultations to planning approvals and construction drawings. Recent projects include two-storey and three-storey extensions, rear extensions with integrated annexe accommodation, and side extensions connected to garage conversions. We specialise in blending modern additions with period properties.
Conversions
We transform existing structures into functional living spaces through barn conversions, loft conversions, and retail-to-residential transformations. Our approach combines character preservation with modern design elements. Recent projects include agricultural building conversions into residential dwellings and commercial space adaptations. We handle all planning requirements and structural modifications.
Layout Alterations
Our layout alteration services maximise the functionality of existing spaces. We specialise in reconfiguring internal layouts, converting integral garages, and creating open-plan living areas. Projects often involve overcoming planning constraints while improving spatial flow. Recent work includes transforming traditional bungalows into contemporary family homes through strategic reconfiguration.
Commercial Design
We provide architectural solutions for commercial projects including new builds, alterations, and extensions. Our experience spans retail units, mixed-use developments, and specialist commercial spaces like board game cafes. We offer detailed design packages, visualisation services, and site liaison. Recent projects demonstrate our ability to balance commercial requirements with aesthetic appeal.
