This full house refurbishment and extension project in Clapham, London had been a long-standing ambition for our clients. When we were appointed in 2018, we went through a detailed briefing process with them, led in part by the photos and magazine clippings that they had been diligently accumulating over the years. The design grew out of these images and was finessed in line with the practical requirements of the brief. A ground floor, side extension makes space for a larger kitchen and downstairs WC, and a mansard loft addition creates a new bedroom suite on the top floor. We provided full architectural services from concept design through planning to contract administration on site.
