EXTENSIONS
Designing an architectural extension requires a balance of creativity and practicality. At Phoenix Design, we consider the available space, the desired aesthetic, and the project budget. With the right approach, one can create an extension that enhances the overall appearance and atmosphere of the building while also meeting functional needs.
When designing an architectural extension, it is vital to adopt a holistic approach that considers both the project's practical and aesthetic components. This may involve exploring various design possibilities and thoughtfully selecting materials and finishes that complement the existing structure.
CONVERSIONS
An architectural conversion involves transforming an existing, often unused space, such as a garage or loft, into a functional area.
​
This process requires careful consideration of the building's structure and flow to ensure that the new space meets its needs while preserving the integrity of the existing building.
​​
Conversions may also involve creating a new space, such as a House of Multiple Occupation (HMO), from a large existing house; developments like this can revitalise an otherwise unusable space.



NEW BUILDS
The occupants' needs and lifestyles must be taken into account when designing a new house. This encompasses factors such as the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces needed. Using energy-efficient materials and technologies can also assist in minimising the house's environmental impact.
​​
An effective new-build house design should also adhere to local planning and building regulations. These may include setback requirements, height restrictions, and other construction rules. Working with an experienced architect can help ensure compliance with these regulations while achieving the desired design.
