Hampton Hill extension: windows installed!

Following our previous post, we visited the site again to see the progress on the project. We were pleased to witness the construction proceeding smoothly, with every step meticulously executed. One notable development was the arrival and installation of the glazing, which added an elegant touch to the structure. The chosen glazing not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal but also brought in an abundance of natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere within the building. We are excited to observe the project taking shape and eagerly anticipate the next milestones on this remarkable journey.

The glazing package includes triple glazed Swedish windows by West Coast and a skylight by The Rooflight Company. These high-quality windows and skylight not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the structure but also provide excellent insulation, allowing for a more energy-efficient and comfortable living or working environment. By choosing products from reputable companies like West Coast and The Rooflight Company, we ensured that our clients received the best possible features for their space.

The project is now ready for the new floor, internal skimming, and external rendering. With all these crucial elements coming together, we are eagerly looking forward to the next site visit. It promises to be an exciting moment, as we expect the project to showcase a remarkable transformation. We are excited to see the project transform into a unique form, showcasing our commitment to accurate and exceptional architecture.

Hampton Hill extension well under construction

We visited the construction site in Hampton Hill to see the impressive progress of this beautiful rear extension. As we walked through, we confirmed the size and proportions of the new addition were just right. The standout feature was the stunning L-shaped opening for a new window, which provided an amazing view of the surrounding landscape. The elegant opening for the new French doors also opened up to a charming outdoor area. The room was filled with natural light thanks to the large skylight. Every aspect of this extension showed sophistication and careful design, leaving us very impressed with the craftsmanship of the contractor.

The next crucial step in the construction process will involve the meticulous installation of the glazing components. These additions will include a breath-taking array of picture windows, elegant French doors, and expansive skylights. Once these glazed elements are in place, they will flood the property with an abundance of natural daylight throughout the year. Not only will this enhance the overall ambiance of the interior spaces, but it will also establish a harmonious connection between the indoor and outdoor areas.

We'll give you another update in a few days. The entire team is working hard to see this project built. We promise to keep you informed at every step!

Twickenham mews project starts on site

We are happy to announce that the refurbishment and conversion project of a lovely mews house in Twickenham has begun! The contractor has already started working on the new roof structure. This specially designed structure will not only make the property look more modern and stylish, but will also provide functional benefits. It will feature four beautiful skylights, strategically placed to bring in plenty of natural light to the first floor living area. We look forward to sharing more updates as we continue to transform this building.

The conversion of this existing coach house to a one bedroom house will involve two levels, allowing for an efficient use of space. On the ground floor, there will be a cosy bedroom and a modern bathroom, ensuring the utmost comfort for its residents. To optimize the ceiling height and create an open and airy atmosphere, the existing floor level will be lowered. Furthermore, we have taken into account the importance of safety and compliance, as the previous steep stair did not meet Building Regulations. In our innovative redesign, we have carefully relocated and expertly designed a new stair that seamlessly connects the ground and first floor, promoting both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
In preserving the character of the space, the existing fireplace and chimney breast will be meticulously maintained and refurbished, adding a touch of warmth and charm to the living area. Speaking of the living area, it will be strategically situated on the first floor to take full advantage of the picturesque views that surround the coach house. Moreover, the incorporation of four new skylights ensures an abundance of natural daylight throughout the day, enhancing the overall ambiance and creating a serene and inviting living environment for its occupants. With these thoughtful enhancements, this renovated coach house will effortlessly provide an intimate and modern living experience within a compact yet intelligently designed space.

Hampton Hill extension: construction starts!

We have begun building an extension at a lovely house in Hampton Hill. The project includes renovating and improving the ground floor to make the house more comfortable and functional. We'll share exciting photos of the transformation soon!

The client approached us in 2016 with a specific vision in mind - a ground floor extension project to their semi-detached 3-bedroom property in the neighbourhood of Hampton Hill. With their main focus on enhancing the heart of their home, they expressed a desire for seamless connectivity between the kitchen and dining room, creating an open plan space that would effortlessly overlook their garden. To bring their dream to life, we proposed a complete overhaul of the existing kitchen, replacing it with a modern, functional design that would not only cater to their culinary needs but also serve as a focal point for social gatherings. In addition, the client sought to revamp the ground floor guest WC and garage, envisioning a transformation that would result in an additional utility area or pantry - a space designed to streamline daily household tasks.

The contractor has started demolishing and digging at the site. We're excited to see the progress of our project. Every step brings us closer to our architectural vision. We're closely monitoring every detail to make sure everything is done perfectly. The transformation ahead will be amazing!
