RENOVATION • NOTTINGHAM
RENOVATION • NOTTINGHAM
This family home was reconfigured to create a brighter, more open layout without the need for an extension. By removing walls and connecting smaller rooms, the design improved both flow and light, transforming how the family uses the space day to day. Our proposed alterations were developed into the final architect’s drawings, ensuring a cohesive result.

BEFORE
The downstairs was a warren of small rooms. All the separate spaces blocked the light and made the space feel cramped and dis-jointed.
The brief was to create a large open space suitable for busy family life.
AFTER
The key changes were linking the hallway, living room and study with the open plan space.
Rather than just having one access route, the design created a flow, to ensure the spaces felt connected.
Internal views were considered as well as external, such as this view from the island when cooking.
WORKING TOGETHER
Our role in the project was to support on spacial planning, room layout, kitchen and utility design.
The client selected decor choices, with a strong wallpaper adding interest in the dining space and muted natural tones for flooring and furniture to help the spaces flow.
An important part of our relationship with clients is the balance between offering support and advice, but then stepping back when clients feel confident to make their own choices.
testimonial
“Caroline's advice and guidance meant that the process of planning how best to use space differently in our new house was really simple. Caroline had lots of creative ideas and plenty of enthusiasm; we used several of her designs in our final plans rather than those of our architect. The result was a light airy space. She has a real passion for what she does and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to maximise and use their space more creatively.”
