Today we visited our recently finished project in New Malden. This property has come a long way since 2023. Damaged by flooding and in need of refurbishment, we worked carefully with our client and successfully equipped this 4-bedroom house with a spacious new extension. Whilst the house previously felt quite dark and small, the new addition of large glazed elements now brings plenty of light into the space, as well as creating a connection with the garden allowing for an improved flow and functionality to the home. The decision to retain existing elements like the curved staircase has created a blend between the existing house and the contemporary style of the extension which makes the living space truly unique. A high quality of craftsmanship and design can be seen through the property in the joinery and detailing. We are extremely pleased with the finished product and professional photos will follow later this year.
New project in New Malden nearing completion
We are thrilled to announce that one of our recent projects in New Malden, a contemporary rear extension on a 4-bedroom detached house, is nearing completion. Having recently purchased the house, our client wanted a full refurbishment with a vision of creating a more habitable space with a focus on natural daylight. The current kitchen was to become a snug and the existing dining area was to be expanded towards an underutilized rear patio, facilitating the creation of a seating and living space.
This has now come to fruition, with a large glazed portion of the new extension framing views and beautiful exposed timber joists with an inset skylight providing increased daylighting. We have worked in close collaboration with the client, choosing tasteful and fitting products to suit the new space, such as light fittings and the large two-sided built-in fireplace in the centre of the plan, creating a feature of a structural wall. A previously small and only functional kitchen and dining room has become a perfect living space suited for the young family.

House extension in New Malden
Square One Architects is excited to announce that we have received planning approval for an amazing new project in New Malden. We will be creating a beautiful extension at the back of a charming house from the 1960s. Our team has designed a modern and timeless addition that complements the existing character of the house.
Located in a lively area, the expanded property will offer ample room for living, working, and hosting. The rear extension will feature stylish glass panels and sleek design, filling the inside with sunlight and blurring the borders between indoor and outdoor areas.
The design demonstrates a new way to use space efficiently by including elements that serve multiple purposes. Our architects have redesigned the layout to seamlessly connect the existing structure with the new extension, making the home more spacious and convenient. This will improve the flow and functionality of the home, offering a comfortable and easy living experience.
The back extension will provide plenty of space for a contemporary, open kitchen that connects to a cozy dining area and living room, perfect for small gatherings and big parties. Big sliding doors will make it easy to get to the beautiful garden, giving a peaceful and green space in the city.
At Square One Architects, we always pay attention to the little things that make a big difference in our designs. This project is no different. We are using sustainable materials and energy-efficient features to make the property more eco-friendly and save homeowners money in the long run. The project is almost finished and will greatly improve the look of the original house, combining new ideas with a nod to the area's history. We can't wait to bring this transformation to life. Our goal is to create a beautiful and practical space that fits in with the natural surroundings and offers a modern way of living for our clients in New Malden.
