MAKING BETTER USE OF SPACE IN MID CORNWALL

This project in Perranporth, Mid Cornwall focused on making thoughtful design adjustments that improved the functionality and flow of the home while making the best possible use of the available space. The aim was to create a layout that better suited the clients’ day to day living without unnecessary extension or disruption.

Careful alterations to the internal arrangement introduced improved natural light, better connections between rooms and a more practical use of space throughout the property. The revised design helped create a home that feels more open, comfortable and efficient while remaining sensitive to the character of the existing building.

The result is a refined contemporary home that demonstrates how carefully considered architectural design can significantly improve everyday living through intelligent use of space and layout.

We work with clients across the county as experienced architects in Cornwall, creating thoughtful renovations, extensions and sustainable homes tailored to each property, landscape and lifestyle.

OPEN PLAN SPACES

The new single storey extension isolated on the South elevation, enabling the ground floor layout to be reconfigured.
