Loft Conversion Kew

A CUSTOM DESIGN LOFT for Kew was a challenging project for the architects and designers at Form Design Architecture. The space had undergone re-fitting in the past, which altered the scale and industrial spirit of the space. The new owners had relocated from New York, and were looking for an apartment that would feel more like an industrial loft. They stripped away the fit-out, creating an empty space that met the lifestyle of the new owners.

Choosing the right style of stairs and furniture is crucial for loft conversions in Kew. The right stairs should match the rest of the property, so that noise does not travel to the other rooms. Open stairs are also a good option for a teenager's room or a crash pad. The staircase itself should be wide enough to accommodate all of the furniture and the bed. The interior of the new room should have plenty of storage and ample space to move around.

The height of the ceiling is one of the most important factors for loft conversion design in Kew. It should not be more than 20 percent of the roof area. The height of the ceiling is the main constraint for windows. If you are having a tall ceiling means that you will have to bend down to put up furniture. Moreover, you will not be able to enjoy the view of the city from the loft unless you're standing on a ledge.

WHAT MAINTENANCE DOES A LOFT CONVERSION REQUIRE?

A loft conversion in Kew requires minimal maintenance. Regular inspection of the roof should be done to check for any signs of wear and tear, particularly around flashings, skylights, and chimneys. It's also essential to check for any water damage or insect infestation that could affect the structural integrity. Additionally, if you have installed any insulation, it is essential to check that it is still in good condition. If necessary, the insulation should be replaced or repaired as needed. Finally, ensure to keep gutters and downpipes clean and free of debris so they don't become blocked.

HOW TO REDUCE COSTS?

To reduce the costs of a loft conversion in Kew, it is essential to consider how much space you need and the type of materials that will be used. Consider using lighter materials for parts of the construction where possible, such as for ceilings or internal walls. Reusing existing furniture or fixtures may also help to reduce overall costs. Additionally, you may want to look into using cheaper flooring or insulation materials. Finally, consider any DIY tasks that you are able to take on yourself to reduce labour costs.
