The Strategic Intent

The original ground floor was boxed in.

Rooms felt segmented and disconnected.

The brief was to bring clarity and light  to make it feel calm and whole.

Walls came down. Sightlines opened up. Roof glazing drew in the sky.

Pocket doors glide closed when needed, but otherwise vanish.

The space now moves gently from front door to garden, shaped by warmth and intention.

A soft palette of oak, plaster tones, and clean lines anchors the flow.

Even the family cat got its moment, a custom detail in the rear glass panel that’s as thoughtful as the rest.

The Plan

Every element was placed to create rhythm.

Open zones transition with light and material changes.

The rear extension uses structural glass to draw in daylight and keep sightlines clean.

Pocket doors create flexibility. Joinery keeps clutter hidden.

There is softness underfoot and clarity above.

The cat flap, laser-cut into the structural glazing, adds a sense of personality without disrupting the finish.

The Create

Oak herringbone flooring flows through the ground floor.

Joinery was built to wrap the dining and lounge spaces with texture and storage.

A long skylight runs above the kitchen, washing the oak cabinetry in natural light.

Sliding doors open onto the garden with minimal framing and maximum connection.

The build is defined by precision. From the steel work to the glass etching, everything lines up.

Client experience.

“Elemented stepped in at a vulnerable moment. Our original builder had dropped out last minute. Tomasz was calm, clear, and incredibly supportive. He made sure everything stayed on track, and the project actually finished slightly ahead of schedule. Three years on, the house still feels fresh and beautifully put together. From the long glass panel with the bespoke cat flap to the warm textures and thoughtful flow, the build has truly stood the test of time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, especially if you want a team who will deliver under pressure and still care about every detail.”
