Planning Permission Approved for a Contemporary Side Extension in Worthing
Shape Architecture has recently secured planning permission for an exciting side infill extension project in Worthing, transforming a compact and outdated kitchen into a spacious contemporary kitchen dining area designed for modern living.
Modern Side Extension Design in Worthing
This thoughtfully designed Worthing side extension demonstrates how even a relatively small extension can dramatically improve the functionality and feel of a home. By extending into the underused side return, the new layout creates an open-plan kitchen and dining space that is both practical and visually striking.
Large glazed doors opening onto the garden, combined with extensive roof lights, allow natural light to flood the interior throughout the day. The result is a bright, airy living space that connects seamlessly with the outdoor environment while enhancing the overall flow of the property.
Importantly, the extension makes use of a previously poor-quality exterior side return area, meaning there is minimal impact on the main garden space — a key consideration for many homeowners planning an extension in Worthing.
Using 3D Design to Maximise Extension Potential
At Shape Architecture,3D computer modelling plays a central role in the architectural design process. These visual tools help clients fully understand the proposed extension before construction begins, ensuring clear communication and informed decision-making.
Detailed 3D models also allow the design team to explore every opportunity to maximise light, space, and layout efficiency, resulting in carefully considered contemporary extensions tailored to each property.
