Kitchen Extension & Remodelling Project 2022

My client is an avid cook and loves entertaining family & friends with his culinary delights and was becoming frustrated with the lack of space in his kitchen to do that.  He had already decided a small extension to the existing kitchen was needed but the question was how to best use the space and give it a modern and functional feel whilst still being an amazing space to entertain.

We added a small extension in terms of depth to run the full width of the back of the house across the existing kitchen/ dining area & took out the exiting wall to give us one big, airy space which was created by roof lights in the new roof area and large picture windows & doors opening to the garden.  The units, to include 2 x ovens were placed along 1 & half walls allowing space for a large island to home the hob but also allowing enough space for food preparation.  2 sides of the island has bar stools to accommodate guests who can enjoy a drink & chat with the host whilst he’s preparing food.  A bar cupboard was built in the style of the kitchen units in the dining area which when open is lit with downlights and has space underneath for the family dogs, not to be forgotten.  A large dining table to seat 10 people with comfortable chairs, important for long lavish evenings.

Interior Squirrel managed the planning drawings, application and project management of the build as well as the interior design.

Extension & Bathroom Renovation, Clapham


A major extension of a mews house in a lovely leafy street in Clapham. My clients had already agreed the structural layout of the kitchen extension & built a third-floor bedroom with ensuite shower into the roof.  As this was such a major build project they decided to also update the main bathroom as part of the interior project.  It was important to create a contemporary feel to the property without loosing the character & taking the age of the original part of the house into consideration.   As avid travellers & collectors of objet & art it was important to make sure the rooms were a showcase for all of those memories. A fabulous house to work with, along with wonderful clients.

Mediterranean Bathroom

I was commissioned last year to begin the transformation of a 4-bed family home in Northamptonshire.  We have started with the first floor as the ground floor is a larger project to include planning permission for an extension, kitchen & utility room re-fit later this year.  My client, who is Portuguese, wanted to evoke memories of home within the concept.  Simple pared back styling and colours that would have longevity and create a backdrop for some of the beautiful work her mother has painted of their village in Portugal along with other pieces she has collected over the years.  With 2 young children we needed a bathroom that would work for them but also double as a beautiful bathroom for guests to use too.  The existing family bathroom had a shower over bath, so I was tasked with getting a separate shower and bath in there for her 4yr old & 12yr old plus a double wash basin.  We achieved the final look by building a stud wall to lengthen the space we had to play with for the shower & bath & by choosing a 1600mm bath & 760mm shower tray we were able to fit both.  I designed a bespoke washstand which was  built by a superb local carpenter and finished with a marble top from a local company.  My client was delighted with the results.’
 

Bathroom to Wet room

Full Home Refurbishment in Rushden, Northamptonshire

My clients, a retired couple, had not done any major upgrades on the property since they built it 30years ago & having just had a new kitchen installed they decided it was time to give the rest of the home a major make over.  The initial enquiry started with 1 room and very quicky extended to the entire house incorporating a complete redesign of the ensuite to make way for a spacious walk-in shower and a refit of the Master Bedroom.  New French doors to the large conservatory & patio doors to the garden.  We didn’t make any structural changes to the rest of the house but did replace all the internal doors with new bespoke half glazed doors to let the light flood through to what was a very dark hallway. Fitted wardrobes in the 2 guest rooms were given a face lift with new paint and hardware to bring them up to date and then new decoration throughout along with soft furnishings & accessories.  I think I can safely say I definitely took them out of their comfort zone with the colour palettes, but they were delighted with the results.  An absolute joy to work with.

Duston, Northampton

Holiday Home in St Ives

A holiday home used regularly by its owners to enjoy long weekends with family & friends. They decided it was time to add a little bit of boutique luxury to the bathroom.  Natural materials to echo the coastal location were used in the stone floor & wall tiles from Mandarin Stone and the natural wood for the bespoke washstand beautifully made by a local craftsman.  Quite a dramatic change to the previous bathroom.
