Location: Kent
Architect: Matthew Kettle
Architecture: Extension to a property in a Conservation Area
This project involved the extension of a family home located in a conservation area in Kent. The extension features a modern, open-plan layout with a bespoke kitchen and central island, designed to serve as the heart of the home, offering a spacious and practical environment for family living. Additionally, a new utility space with a shower room was incorporated into the design, providing both convenience and functionality. The project required intensive structural engineering, including underpinning and a thorough refurbishment.
As part of the overall plan, a multi-purpose modular garden office by gyd modular was designed and built, with the existing garden fully landscaped to seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Excellent experience with Matthew, Vlad and team who designed and project managed our extension to our house in a conservation area. From the moment we met Matthew, he was brilliant - thoughtful, appropriately challenging of ideas (improving ours considerably), and very responsive. We had never undertaken a project such as this, and without his guidance, I am not sure we would have gone through with the build.
The team sourced a panel of building companies and supported us through determining who to manage the build itself. Matthew, and also Vlad, visited the site often, checking on progress and liaising with the contractors to keep things on track and to their exacting standards. Matthew has worked with all of the companies that he suggested, enabling him to smoothly manage the relationships throughout.
Absolutely no hesitation in recommending GYD Architects for any project, and very happy to provide further references as needed.
Matthew & Co - thank you
