Property Refurbishment Architect

Founded more than 30 years ago, Gregory Phillips Architects is a multi-award winning architecture studio specialising in contemporary residential design and architectural design for homes. 

Established as one of the UK’s leading residential architects, we deliver the finest homes to the highest architectural quality with a carefully considered approach. 

Whether the project is an extension, a renovation or an entirely new architecture house design, every project we work on is transformative and we care about every detail. 

We strive for every project to be our best yet. 

Gregory Phillips architects have a broad range of experience refurbishing many types of existing properties from large individual dwellings to apartments. Our experience also extends to refurbishment of listed buildings and obtaining Landlord’s permissions in the form of licences to alter. We have completed many conservation and heritage building projects successfully and harmoniously integrating new architectural technologies and features into the original fabric of the building.

Our clients come to us where their homes are in need of modernisation or to alter the layout to suit particular needs.  Taking account of our client’s lifestyles and brief we develop design proposals to rationalise layouts and create more light and efficient space within existing footprints to suit a more modern way of living.  Often this includes open plan kitchen, living, dining spaces and built in storage throughout.

The work necessary to update properties varies, depending on our client’s needs, wishes and budget.  We have designed projects with ‘a light touch’ of minimal structural intervention to full refurbishment and structural remodelling in order to completely alter the internal arrangement. Where little alteration to the layout is proposed, we work with the existing arrangement, incorporating innovative design solutions and a considered material palette to modernise and update the interiors. More significant structural alterations can open up more possibilities depending on the requirements of the brief and budget.

Gregory Phillips Architects have completed many award winning home refurbishments. View our Portfolio or contact us on 0207 7243040 to discuss your project.
