These Lambeth homeowners came to Resi looking to really shake up their ground floor. They not only wanted to add a rear extension onto their property, but they also wanted to redesign their layout, adding in a new bedroom and even an internal courtyard. With such a big wish list, our designer certainly had a lot to sink their teeth into!
These Lambeth homeowners came to Resi looking to really shake up their ground floor. They not only wanted to add a rear extension onto their property, but they also wanted to redesign their layout, adding in a new bedroom and even an internal courtyard. With such a big wish list, our designer certainly had a lot to sink their teeth into!
Starting out, the kitchen in this property sat sandwiched between a bedroom to the rear of the property and the reception room at the front. All this was due to change, thanks to the rear extension we brought to life. We have moved the kitchen into this new extension, and have turned the old cooking hub into a new main bathroom - complete with a small utility room.
In its new home at the rear of the property, the new kitchen diner has some stunning modern touches, including an impressive set of large bi-fold doors. They help connect the new dining space with the patio outside, while the large skylight in the extension keeps the entire space feeling at one with nature.
Green space is at the heart of this design, and we don’t mean that figuratively. One of the most interesting features of this design is the internal courtyard, which sits nestled between the new kitchen and a newly renovated bedroom. Surrounded by glazing, the courtyard can be viewed from both rooms, with an access point located in the bedroom. Not only does this allow natural light to pass from room to room, it also provides leafy views for everyone to enjoy, thanks to the large swaths of glazing.
As a flat, this property was unable to benefit from permitted development rights. Therefore, it was up to our team to put together a full planning application. The 3D models the homeowners commissioned not only helped them to visualise the new space, they were also helpful attachments to the planning package and we often recommend including them in your application, especially if creating something outside of the box. With approval now in hand, we can’t wait to see this project come to life!

Professional help doesn't have to break the bank
Resi are a great investment
Resi have been great. We knew we needed help and saw a couple of “all in” firms before we found Resi. The others were extremely expensive and not as flexible as Resi.

Second time I am using Resi
I have found them to be better in terms of ideas, accuracy and efficiency than any other architect I have worked with.
