We’re delighted to share that planning has been approved for our lovely client — a mum with young children who wanted to transform her home by creating a bright, open-plan kitchen and dining area perfect for family life and entertaining. From the start, we knew this project would come with challenges. The ground conditions only allowed for pile foundations, which would have made a rear extension very expensive. With a tight budget to work within, we took a creative approach — rethinking the existing layout to make the most of the current space rather than overextending. The result is a smart, practical design that still achieves the sense of openness and connection she dreamed of, without compromising on style or functionality. We’re thrilled that planning has now been approved, and this hard-working family can look forward to a home that truly fits their lifestyle.
