Thinking about a basement conversion or reworking your internal layout?

On this project to seamlessly connect a newly converted basement with the main living space, we reconfigured the layout around the staircase—opening up adjacent rooms and the hallway to improve flow and natural light.

To meet fire safety regulations without compromising the open feel, we encased the staircase in a fully glazed enclosure. This solution preserved visual connectivity between floors while maintaining essential fire compartmentation.

A great example of how thoughtful design can balance aesthetics, function, and compliance.

We’re excited to share this beautiful extension to a period home—one that respects the character of the original property while enhancing modern family living.

By carefully designing the new spaces to be sympathetic to the existing architecture and use some of the original materials, we’ve seamlessly blended old and new.

The kitchen has become the heart of the home, offering a more open, light-filled space for cooking, entertaining, and family gatherings.

Upstairs, the addition of a new bedroom suite has provided a private retreat, changing the way the family uses and enjoys their home.

It’s always rewarding to see how well-considered design can truly transform everyday living.

Are you looking to undertake a similar project? We’d love to hear from you.

What a difference light makes! Before this renovation, my client’s kitchen felt dark and closed off - now, it’s bright, open and full of life. By introducing bigger windows, lighter tones and open layout, we didn’t just transform a room - we elevated their entire way of living. Now, mornings start with sunlight streaming in, cooking feels effortless and the space brings a sense of calm. It is more than just aesthetics! Every project reminds me why I do what I do - creating spaces that don’t just look good but change lives.

This was an exciting project to collaborate with Elena (The Space Whisperer). The house extension in Alderley Edge created a specious and family friendly kitchen and dining area.

As the Architect for the scheme, we focused on the overall structure, layout, and functionality of the space, while Elena, the interior designer, perfected the aesthetics, furnishings, and décor.

Collaborating with each other as well as the client from the start of the project we ensured a holistic approach to the design process, resulting in a cohesive and well-integrated space.

This time last year I was fortunate to go travelling in California (a state I’ve visited and loved for over 24 years). In all this time one area I hadn't had chance to visit was Palm Springs, the cooler temperature of the Winter made it possible (bearable) so I was able to visit and see first hand some of the amazing architecture of Richard Neutra and William Krisel

The beauty of Palm Springs architecture lies in its harmonious integration with the surrounding desert landscape. The clean lines and minimalist design capture a sense of simplicity and elegance. Large glass windows frame stunning desert views, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Additionally, the amazing 1950s architecture, with its emphasis on functionality and form, creates a timeless aesthetic. The combination of thoughtful design, natural materials, and a connection to nature contributes to the overall allure and beauty.

Can we incorporate this mid-century modern style in the UK?

While it is strongly associated with Palm Springs and the American West, you can certainly incorporate elements.

Consider adapting the principles of clean lines, open spaces, and a connection with nature to suit your local context and climate.
