A Stunning Home Extension in Southgate, North London

Ali and Aysha's North London renovation project involved creating an era-sensitive extension to house a family kitchen and snug area. To fully maximize the new space, we reconfigured the entire ground floor layout, offering the family an opportunity to rethink not only their extension but their entire home. Aysha had done extensive research and set clear design criteria before starting the process. While the initial planning application was rejected, the second, successful application provided the flexibility to enhance the layout and introduce unique features that the family now cherishes.

The industrial-style extension to this Victorian house now features an open-plan space filled with natural light, seamlessly connecting to the rear garden. Internally, the design makes a dramatic statement with vaulted ceilings, full-height glazing, and oversized rooflights. A key design element, the industrial crittall-style doors, extends from the front of the house through to the rear, linking the formal living room with the expansive open space at the back.

Modernising a Victorian Terrace in High Barnet

This 1890s terraced house underwent a full renovation to transform it into a modern family home, while retaining its period charm. Previously owned for over 40 years and largely untouched, the property was reimagined with a complete refurbishment, including new flooring, decoration, and a thoughtfully designed single-storey rear and side extension.

The extension created a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space, featuring a pitched roof with glazed panels that flood the interior with natural light. An L-shaped loft conversion added a spacious double bedroom, walk-in wardrobe, and bathroom  all designed to feel refined and contemporary while respecting the home’s original character.

Light-Filled Living: Southgate Extension in North London

Eleni, Andreas, and their young family wanted to transform their Victorian terraced home in North London with a modern, open-plan kitchen and dining space. Model Projects was tasked with designing a side-to-rear extension that balanced contemporary living with the charm of the original period property.

The result is a light-filled family hub, featuring traditional yellow London stock brickwork, a clean-lined flat roof, and a subtle stone parapet. A full-height sliding door and a pitched glazed roof bring in abundant natural light, while an LED-lit shadow gap around the rooflight adds a soft, ambient atmosphere in the evenings  blending old and new with elegant simplicity.
