Basingstoke Architecture
Period houses, modern lives.
North Hampshire is full of good older houses that were built for a different way of living, and most of our work here is about opening them up without losing what makes them worth keeping.
Our story.
Who are we?
Basingstoke grew quickly in the post-war years, but around it sit villages like Old Basing, Sherborne St John and Upton Grey with listed cottages, farmhouses and Georgian frontages. Adding to a listed building, or to one in a conservation area, is a conversation with the planning authority about proportion, materials and what the change does to the original building.
Glazing a rear elevation, reworking a dark service wing or adding a garden room can transform a house without altering how it reads from the street. Where a building is listed, we set out the case in a heritage statement and design the junction between old and new so that it is legible rather than hidden.
With more than 450 projects behind us, we design new homes, extensions, luxury developments and complex renovations across Hampshire and the wider South of England, always in close collaboration with you.
What we do.
From appraisal to completion.
We begin with a proper appraisal of the site — access, levels, trees, drainage, services and planning history — so you know early what the land can carry.
We handle the planning process, including conservation area and listed building consent where it applies, and prepare the drawings, statements and specialist input a sensitive site needs.
From there we take the design through building regulations and technical detailing, and stay close to the build so the finished house matches the drawings.
