Our Projects

📍 Sutton, London

Remember this project? Our client purchased this property in Sutton with an incredible amount of land and a big vision for the future. On a road full of detached homes with stunning extensions, it was clear this house needed a bold transformation to match its surroundings.

But after two planning refusals for so-called
‘overdevelopment’—a decision we found baffling given the clear improvement to the home and street scene—we decided to fight back. And we’re thrilled to share that we won the appeal!

Sometimes councils just don’t get it, but persistence pays off. Here’s to turning dreams into reality, one project at a time!

📍Purley, London. 

Sometimes, even with so much already in place, there’s a lingering thought: What could elevate this further? For this client, the answer was clear—a refined front transformation utilising the untapped potential of their roof space. Tasked with reimagining the upper floors, we crafted a thoughtful internal redesign that seamlessly integrated an elegant staircase into the loft. This was achieved by ingeniously adapting the existing staircase layout and introducing a central bay window to bring balance and character.

The front elevation now boasts two charming cottage dormers, each providing ample headroom to accommodate a luxurious bathroom and a bespoke walk-in wardrobe. At the rear, a carefully proportioned box dormer sits subtly within the original roofline, ensuring it remains harmonious with the property’s character. This rear addition forms a spacious lounge area, part of an opulent master bedroom suite entirely nestled within the newly optimised roof space—a perfect blend of style, functionality, and architectural finesse.

📍 Wandsworth, London.

Swipe right to the end to see how this property has been transformed. 

This property went through a major reconstruction phase. We carried out a 6m rear extension; full gut out and major remodelling of the ground floor to create a formal living area, large family bathroom tucked in between the new open plan kitchen/dining area and the front reception room. A utility room/pantry. The first floor was mainly refurbished along with the addition of a new stair case into the loft area for the master suite which included a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite. It’s a shame we can’t fit the entire project into one gallery but the rest of the photos will follow when the client can fully move in.

📍 Secret location within Surrey,

One of my favourite projects this year! The whole aim of this project is to build a house that blends in seamlessly within the woodland. Fantastic work by our architects.

📍 Slough, London.
Exciting progress on this stunning transformation! 

We’re thrilled to bring our client’s vision to life with multiple extensions, a modern front and rear facelift, and a complete redesign of the interior.

Planning approved, foundations laid - their dream home is officially underway! Stay tuned for more updates as we build something truly special.

📍 Croydon, London

All 3 elements approved for this one and the loft conversion has already finished construction! Awaiting the rest of the works which include a double storey partial rear and side extensions, and ground floor wraparound extension with major internal alterations.

📍 Wimbledon, London. 

We don’t usually showcase our smaller design and build projects, but this one has a special story and highlights a situation we often come across,

“Help! We’re on a tight budget, but we really need more space for our growing family!” A lovely couple expecting their first child came to us with this challenge—they live in a one-bedroom maisonette and needed a smart solution fast!

The first thing we do? Chat budget. It’s all about being realistic, honest and upfront, so there are no surprises later. Making sure you are with the right person from the get-go is a must. 

With careful layout planning (and some clever conversations with our structures team!), we managed to avoid major structural work while squeezing in a second bedroom, plus a cosy kitchen, dining, and living area for this growing family. 🌿 

As a result of careful designs, the construction phase went as smooth as ever – in fact we completed the construction within 10 weeks!

Value engineering is at the heart of what we do, and because of that, we delivered a beautifully finished space that didn’t break the bank. And guess what? The property value shot up for this ground-floor maisonette! 🏡✨
