With an open brief to extend and revitalise this house we designed a rear and side extension to create an additional guest room and a stunning vaulted space for a new master bedroom. A small dormer was also added to the front elevation. The ground floor was transformed by the rear extension which opened out the existing smaller rooms, forming a flexible open plan living space with the new kitchen at it’s heart.

“Thank you so much Vikki for all your work you put into building a dream house for us. You really listened to what we wanted and now it’s done it couldn’t be any more perfect! It works so well for our family - we really enjoy being home.

Vikki is so easy to work with, very professional and just a lovely person! Thank you again!”

The ground floor of this family home was in need of modernisation to make it better suited to life with two young children. We opened it out and extended to the back, whilst utilising the existing garage to create a guest room and en-suite. Introducing a pitched roof above the kitchen has created a beautiful, sociable space that has lots of different places to cook, sit, work and play. The interlinked spaces work well for a young family, with clear sightlines through all the rooms, but will also be adaptable as the children get older. With a keen eye for style and detail, our clients worked closely with us to create their contemporary and stylish new home.

“From the moment we met Vikki we knew she was the architect for us. Straight away she understood what we needed, had enthusiasm for our project, and she produced some great design options for us. She went above and beyond to help us get the planning through in time, and always communicated at each stage of the process. We have already recommended her to our friends and would definitely use her again.”

The ground floor of this family home was transformed with a few simple alterations. The existing conservatory was rarely used, but removing part of the back wall has reinvented it as a playroom and an inviting addition to the main living area. The kitchen also felt very separate, but the new family room extension, with it’s large picture window, has created a sociable space for this young family to cook, eat and play together.

The first floor extension over the garage also added a vaulted, light filled, master bedroom suite.

“Working with Vikki on the renovation of our house was incredibly straightforward and thoroughly enjoyable. We felt so daunted at the start of the journey but were reassured by Vikki’s vision for our home and her extensive knowledge and experience.  She was able to take our ideas and requirements and turn them into a stunning reality. Her vision for our home was both beautiful and practical. She guided us through the entire process so we always knew what the next steps were, what order they needed to be done in and approximate costs. She delivered all of her requirements on time and with no hidden costs or complications.  

Vikki assisted us with our planning application and right to light issues, and her recommendations for tradespeople and other specialists were invaluable. She remained involved in the project throughout, always there for reassurance and guidance. The final result has surpassed all our expectations, and we are delighted with our “new” home. Thank you, Vikki for being the calm in the midst of the house renovation storm!”

A small extension to replace an old, draughty conservatory, combined with internal alterations, has changed the ground floor of this house beyond recognition. The building was originally a pub and when first converted it retained a lot of small dark rooms. We opened these out and used the previously hidden vaulted ceiling to transform the kitchen and living space. The result is a beautiful, light filled room, much better suited to the wide, open countryside that it looks over.

This dated Victorian apartment had a full renovation. A small extension and a reconfiguration of the existing rooms created some much needed extra living space. It also provided an additional room which can be closed off as a guest bedroom when needed. Built in storage helps to define different areas and is essential for family life in a smaller property. The vaulted ceiling was opened up in the dining area creating light and a visual sense of additional space - a stark contrast to the original dark room. Additional photos will be added soon when the final rooms are completed.

A small extension and minor internal remodelling has created this cosy kitchen and dining space. The different ceiling levels and the light flooding in from the rooflights helps to lift the space and create visual interest and character.

‘It’s fair to say that this project has transformed how we live in our home. We had debated how best to extend the house for years, but from the moment we first spoke to Vikki she helped us see the space in a completely different way and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. We initially thought we’d have to sacrifice our dining room to make space for the dream kitchen, but Vikki’s vision meant we could transform the dining room into a separate snug, and then bring the dining space into the kitchen extension. From big decisions like that through to smaller things like maximising daylight through skylights etc, Vikki has partnered with us every step of the way to create our dream living space. We can’t recommend her work highly enough!’

This bedroom was transformed from a dark, dated room to a modern, warm haven in the attic space of this family home. With an extensive collection of clothes and shoes, the owner’s brief called for creative storage and lots of it! We designed and fitted all the furniture, making the most of the available space but also making sure the room felt light and spacious.

“We have always loved our bedroom - a haven away from our five children! When Vikki & Calvin saw it, it was very dated with not enough storage for our clothes and my extensive range of shoes and handbags. What they designed completely revamped the bedroom into a dream space. My shoes are now stored in custom built drawers where they can be seen and easily accessed. We are thrilled with the end result. The room is now a modern, light, airy space built and finished to an incredibly high standard. Thank you so much.”

Our involvement in this award winning house centred on the kitchen and fitted furniture. A beautiful family home, designed and built by the architect owners, it uses modern finishes and detailing in a bold contemporary space.

This house underwent a full renovation, including internal alterations and a rear extension. It has transformed it into a stunning family home with beautiful spaces that work much better with their daily life. Take a look on our Current Work page to read about the project in more detail.

We worked on the interior of this project with the creative designers at Hart D’Lacey. It was a small extension, internal alterations and renovations to a dated Victorian house. White walls and cabinets combine with concrete walls, marble floors and steel windows. Zebrano cabinets and oak floors help to warm the spaces, alongside touches of soft leather and leafy greenery, creating a haven of calm in a busy city.

This Victorian house was bought with a view to transforming it into a family home in order to sell it on. On the ground floor we opened out a series of smaller rooms to create a kitchen / dining space more suited to everyday family life. Alongside this, the addition of the relatively small dormer created much needed space for an additional bedroom and en-suite.

A full renovation of this London apartment with a rich use of colour and texture. Previously a series of smaller, much darker rooms, they were reorganised to create much more usable and contemporary spaces. Walnut panelling and flooring was used throughout to add warmth to the space, balanced by the crisp white cabinets and the urban river views from the large picture windows.

Our work focused on the interiors in this new build country house in rural Surrey. The client wanted to create a balance of warm, cosy living spaces to contrast with the crisp, modern kitchen and dining area. Nestled in woodland in the Surrey Hills, their home is the perfect retreat from hectic city life.

The dark, dated rooms in this townhouse were transformed into a light filled, contemporary home. With a lot to fit in to this small family home, the use of multifunctional rooms, pocket doors and built in storage all helped to ‘create’ extra space. Whilst light colours were used throughout, an exposed brickwork wall was also introduced to add visual interest to the living area.

A small side and rear extension to this Victorian semi-detached house created a larger kitchen and a much needed wc and utility area. Opening up the vaulted roof over the kitchen introduced light and visual space into the previously very dark room.

Occasionally we get involved in making freestanding furniture pieces for clients, whilst working on other areas of their houses. Designed to their specific requirements and tastes they are very bespoke pieces, but often we end up wishing we could have them in our home too.
