Flat refurbishment in Hove
This project concerns the transformation of a flat on First Avenue in Hove. Interestingly the flat had been developed but it was felt by the new owners that many opportunities were missed. Given the high ceilings that have allowed a mezzanine floor to be installed we agreed that a more thoughtful and contemporary design could be achieved that would exceed our Client’s expectations. The process began with a site survey and the drawing of existing plans and key is the creation of a 3D computer model of the existing layout from which all the design proposals will be developed. Our Client commented that the 3D model of the exiting layout already helped him think about the opportunities the space offered.
Summary
Internal Refurbishment, Hove
The success of this project lies in the thoughtful transformation of a previously developed flat on First Avenue in Hove. While the property already benefitted from generous ceiling heights and a mezzanine level, our Clients felt the original design had not fully realised the potential of the space. Through a more considered and contemporary approach, the proposal seeks to create a light-filled and elegant interior tailored to modern living.
A Guide to Refurbishment Projects in Hove
The reworking of existing flats often presents significant opportunities to improve the quality of space, circulation and natural light. In this project, the use of detailed 3D computer modelling has been central to exploring design options and clearly communicating ideas throughout the process.
Examples of Refurbishment Projects
Our portfolio is full of extensions of all size and types. The flow from the interior out into the garden is considered in all as is the related use of glass and glazing in the form of rooflights and glazed doors and how they connect the insider to the outside.
