From a tired bungalow to a contemporary villa…
A bold yet sensitive new-build home replacing a dilapidated bungalow in a conservation area. Designed to meet the client’s aspirations for beauty, sustainability and longevity, the house balances contemporary form with contextual care. Its thermally efficient envelope is built from structurally insulated panels (SIPs), finished in locally sourced stone, brick and slate. Internally, the design celebrates crafted joinery and thoughtful reuse, including re-glazed Crittall doors and repurposed timber screens. Novum House was shortlisted for the Homebuilding & Renovating Awards 2022 and won Best Individual New Home at the LABC South Yorkshire & Humber Awards.
Transforming a Semi‑Detached Home
A modest semi‑detached home has been transformed with a zinc‑clad rear extension and thoughtful internal reconfiguration, creating the light‑filled space our clients needed as their family grew. The design enhances flow, character and everyday comfort, reshaping how the home is experienced.
The new open‑plan kitchen and dining area opens directly to the garden, while rooflights bring daylight deep into the living spaces. A clear visual axis from the front door through to the kitchen and living room strengthens the sense of openness and intuitive movement.
Every square metre has been made purposeful. A new utility and storage spine replaces the outdated garage, unifying what were once disconnected rooms. The result is a spacious, connected family home ready for the next chapter.
A Brighter way to Live in a Historic Home
A contemporary glazed extension and full internal reconfiguration breathe new life into this 16th‑century barn. The project opens up the ground floor for modern family living, adds a light‑filled sunroom connecting directly to the garden, and reshapes the first floor with a new bedroom suite and converted workshop above the garage. Sensitive upgrades, new timber windows and a refined material palette bring the whole home up to date while respecting its heritage. The clients are now enjoying a home that feels brighter, more connected and tailored to the way they live.
