Home Potential Study

Every successful home extension starts long before the first line is drawn. It begins with curiosity – understanding how your space lives, breathes and could evolve. The Home Potential Study is a focused, early-stage service designed to help you see what’s achievable before committing to a full design.

Many homeowners come to us with a vision – a larger kitchen, a new bedroom, better light – but aren’t sure how that might fit within the constraints of their home or local planning policy. This stage answers that. We explore the boundaries of what’s possible, both physically and legally, and begin to uncover opportunities hidden within your existing walls.

Through measured surveys, early sketches and site analysis, we study the natural light, structure and flow of your home. We also review local design guidance and planning precedents to identify how far your project can go. Whether your property sits in a conservation area or is part of a modern estate, we tailor our analysis to suit its specific context.

The outcome is clarity. You’ll receive a visual summary of potential extension options, an overview of likely planning constraints and an honest conversation about feasibility and budget. This gives you the confidence to proceed – knowing what’s realistic and what’s worth investing in.

For some clients, this is the point where imagination ignites. It’s often where you begin to see your home differently – not as it is now, but as it could become.
