Transforming Your Home?

Looking to transform your home in a way that enhances your life, improves health and wellbeing and is good for the planet, too? We’ll guide you every step of the way. 

Projects start off with hand sketches of options before we move into 3D modelling. We will have reviews with you along the way to get the design just right and then submitted for Planning approval as needed.

  • Core Services = £8,000

Designing your dream sustainable, healthy home

Your version of a dream home is unique to you. That’s why the journey starts with a deep understanding of your vision, often revealing needs or ideas you didn’t realise you had. We’ll discuss things such as:

  • What excites you about transforming your home?
  • What are your main priorities, and what would you like to achieve with your project?
  • Do you picture space for summer barbecues and hosting family at Christmas?
  • Do you crave more quiet corners for reflection or better organisation?
  • What are you looking to change? And what are your main constraints or worries?
  • What would a successful outcome look like for you – are your main priorities budget, time or a sustainable home?

Whatever your vision, we’re here to help you create a healthy home that supports your daily life, work, family or pets in practical and beautiful ways.
