Each collection groups comparable projects around a specific area and service type, helping you find work closest to your own brief.

Use our case studies to choose the right service

The projects on this page show how different briefs translate into different service routes. A whole-property transformation may begin with house refurbishment or flat refurbishment, while added space may point towards house extensions or basement conversions. Kitchen, bathroom, planning and design decisions often sit inside those larger scopes rather than being isolated upgrades, so reviewing comparable case studies can help you understand sequencing, approvals, structural coordination, finishes and handover before choosing a route. The aim is to make the gallery useful evidence for how layout, approvals, procurement and site coordination connect to the service page you choose next with confidence. Use the portfolio to compare scale, constraint level and design-build complexity, then speak to the team about the service mix that fits your own property. For next steps, review kitchen renovation support, check planning and conservation support, or book a consultation.

Period Apartment Full Refurbishment

Project Overview

A full apartment refurbishment within a white stucco Pimlico building overlooking St. George's Square, restoring original period character — cornicing, ceiling roses, sash window proportions — while introducing warm oak joinery, Calacatta marble bathrooms, brass hardware, and a serene cream palette throughout the principal rooms.
