Residential Architects

From house extensions to innovative new build designs, form follows function.

Residential Development Architects

Choose JBVJ Architects for residential housing developments and build design-led, functional dwellings.

We provide concept design and feasibility studies, pre-planning and full planning applications, building regulations, construction and project management. Our previous residential work includes mixed-use residential developments, contemporary house renovations and innovative sustainable living community design.

House Extension Planning

Reinvent your home with a contemporary design house extension fitted to your needs.

Every house is different, and meeting clients’ personal requirements can transform a house into a home. 

We have a proven track record of creating contemporary single-storey extensions, double-storey extensions, high-quality loft conversions and side extensions.

Alongside these projects, we assess internal layouts to provide design improvements and solutions to suit your daily life.

Home Improvements & Interior Design

Internal alterations to recreate your living space.

Our design approach will explore ideas and layouts to create peaceful, enjoyable homes. With more time living and working from home, we understand how alterations can maximise natural daylight and ventilation to improve mental health.

We prioritise functional layouts in our residential refurbishment and interior design services, adding new aspects to your existing property

Permitted Development

Extensions and alterations without planning permission

Under Permitted Development rights, larger home extension schemes and prior approval, you may be able to extend and make changes to your property within criteria set out by the Government.

We have extensive experience in delivering alterations and extensions without planning permission under Permitted Development rights. This can save you time and money for changes that can include rear extension, side extensions and loft conversions.

New Build House Design

Build the modern luxury house of your dreams.

A new bespoke house starts with a detailed site review. By responding to the site constraints and features, we can unlock the full potential of the site. We take an open, collaborative approach to fully explore ideas in harmony with your requests - JBVJ Architects provides quality, one-off new-build house designs.

Our previous projects include luxury new dwelling designs, townhouse developments and new-build apartments.

Property Conversions + Restoration

Retrofit and restore to preserve historic features and reduce material waste.

Our experience in property conversions has taught us to transform existing and historic buildings into suitable homes while preserving their character and key features. The creative design process often reveals possibilities beyond the initial brief, offering options in collaboration with our clients.

We conduct feasibility studies for change of use, restoration and refurbishment in conservation areas, such as this Grade II Listed Building Restoration, as well as barn conversions, warehouse conversions and garage conversions.
