Meadow View is an exceptional extension and refurbishment in a scenic village of Leicestershire, completed by award-winning Winchester based architects AR Design Studio.

The clients desired a contemporary new build but lacked the budget for a full replacement. ARs approach therefore was to transform the rather unattractive house into what appears to be a new contemporary home without the expense of starting from scratch. Identifying what was useful to keep and what had to go in order to create the modern aesthetic and to keep on budget was the key to a successful outcome.
