Find experts for your property project on The Landsite
Picture this… Your ideal home, the one you’ve had visions of for a while, is in touching distance.
It’s so close you can almost feel the shiny new surfaces, smell the trace of fresh paint floating through the air…
Your dream home might be closer than you think
Extending, renovating and converting our homes are three things that are being given an increasing amount of thought.
With hybrid work models, where people work partly from home and partly in the office, looking like the future, the notion of a comfortable yet multifunctional home has become more desirable.
Because of this, we’ve adapted by utilizing what space we already have.
Dining rooms and kitchen tops are being used as home offices. Resting laptops on sofa arms. Whilst they may be multifunctional, they certainly are not comfortable.
So why not turn a space you tolerate into a space you love, by hiring a professional to completely transform your home into one that incorporates both comfort and versatility?
Because not only are multipurpose spaces an attractive option to maximising the space in your home, but they’re also a chance to get creative.

What you can expect from a good architect
Architectural designers are experts at making the most of the space you have, as well as adding square footage in a way that benefits you and adds value and using one can have a hugely positive impact on both building quality and cost. More.
Once the right architect for the project has been found - they should spend time with you, and your family, at your property to fully understand how you use it, how it could work better for you and what your reasons are for making big changes.
One of the most time-consuming and complex areas of any large property project is planning permission. Of course, depending on the work you are considering having done, you may not need planning permission and many projects can be completed under permitted development rights
Your architect should be able to advise on all areas of the planning process and produce accurate drawings to outline the work required to town planners.
Incorporating green and outdoor spaces
One of the positives we can take over the past eighteen months has been a shift in focus towards the environment and the impact of the outdoors on our mental health.
As the country ground to a halt and working from home becoming the only option for millions of us, the importance of ready access to outdoor space and fresh air cannot be ignored.
Whether it be the relatively small addition of a balcony to your apartment or something more substantial like a garden, there’s been a clear shift in the consumer mindset.
The subsequent boom in the housing market reflects this demand for properties away from urban to more rural environments.
Rather than a nice additional extra, gardens are now regarded as a non-negotiable staple.
Outdoor spaces aren’t possible for everyone or practical for all properties, but there are ways designers are bringing the outside in.
Living walls, for instance, are becoming an increasingly popular feature in new-build properties favoured by landscape and garden design companies.
Not only do they have a positive effect on residents’ wellbeing, but they’re also great for noise reduction if the development is near congested areas.
