Creating Bespoke Home Extensions from the Inside Out

We believe that a truly exceptional home extension starts from within. Our unique approach begins with a thorough understanding of your interior space, ensuring every living, practical, and stylistic requirement is met. From planning where each piece of furniture will go to considering natural light, sightlines, and even the aromas of your kitchen, we focus on designing a space that works for you in every sense.

Once the interior design is optimised, we craft an extension that seamlessly complements your lifestyle while harmonising with the architecture of your property. The result is not just a generic box attached to the house, but a thoughtfully designed space that feels like a natural evolution of your home.
From understanding your needs to managing the construction process, we cover every step.

Our experienced Architect-Designer team, led by Interior Designer Randa Kort (BIID) and Architect Nick Panayiotou (RIBA Chartered), works seamlessly to create home extensions that perfectly balance beauty and functionality. With their combined expertise, your extension will reflect your personal taste, maximise functionality, meet planning requirements, and elevate your living experience.

Stage 1

Survey & Design Brief

We start with an in-depth consultation to understand your vision and lifestyle needs. Committed to understanding your design and planning requirements in full, we analyse your preferences through confidential conversations, observations, and a detailed property survey. These insights are articulated into a design brief document, serving as the foundation for tailoring an extension that perfectly aligns with your needs and lifestyle.

What our clients say

Randa worked magic and rearranged the downstairs layout to get exactly what we needed without the massive cost of an extension. She literally saved us 30/40k by coming up with great ideas for awkward spaces

Randa came to our rescue following to having uninspiring architectural drawings we finalised with the design and build company. She listened and understood our needs as well as nice to haves and came out with the best lay out of our house we could possibly have. She had great ideas and solutions right from the initial meeting and her advise has undoubtably saved us a lot of time and money. We are now very much looking forward to start our build and have Randa as our interior designer.

Randa has helped us resolve a tricky design problem with a solution that suits our budget and specific requirements. She has been flexible, professional and patient with us while we reflected on the various options she offered. We haven't yet completed the work, but are very happy with the detailed plans which we could not have achieved without her expert input.

We had an incredible experience working with Randa. She's an absolute pleasure to work with: she is friendly, communicative, reliable and very detail oriented. She completely rearranged the layout of our home and has made it much more functional, it feels like our house is larger than it was (and we have so much more storage space!).

The plans she drew up for us at the beginning of the project were fantastic in their design, including reconfiguring the layout downstairs in a way we hadn’t thought of and has made the space feel bigger and better as well as more practical. The plans were extremely detailed and our builder was able to work off them without needing much other guidance. Randa is always professional, responsive and great to bounce ideas off and I would work with her again anytime. Thank you Randa!

We were extremely happy with the results of Randa’s work on the whole of our home’s ground floor. Her creativity, professionalism and adaptability turned out to be such welcome skills and so valuable in an ever changing project! Randa completely transformed our ground floor space from the entrance to the kitchen and our home now feels truly pleasurable to live in. Happy and grateful customers! Recommend!
