Sometimes changing the layout of a property is the best way to modernise and unlock new space. In many cases it can be a much better option than moving. It is also kinder for the environment than demolition and rebuilding. If you are thinking of making changes, you should work with us. We can give you the chance to work with an architect London clients love. Our goal is to make sure you get your dream space.

What changes can you make?

When most people think about layout changes they look at moving around furniture to reorient a space. However, you can do far more than this to change a property.

One thing you may be able to do is take down non load bearing walls to unlock spaces. This can be great in all kinds of properties, whether it is a home or an office.

Another thing you can do is move some of the openings in your property. You can create a much better layout by relocating doors. Plus, you can create new openings for windows or move existing ones. This can be more challenging but it is possible as long as you consider the stability. A change to the windows can bring more natural light to spaces, making them far more pleasant.

You can also make changes to flooring layouts in some cases. This is a trickier project but it is possible to relocate stairs if you feel they would be better off somewhere else.

If you change the layout of a property you may also need to make some changes to the piping, electrics, and ventilation. You must ensure that the spaces will still be usable.
