Wilde & Wilde gained Planning permission for an extension and remodel to Long Stratton Village Hall in Norfolk. Our design will give the rear of the Village Hall a pleasant, functional and aesthetic make-over.

An existing late 20th Century extension with a flat roof currently detracts from the pitched brick and flint elevations of the original 1905 building and the Architects wanted to re-work this area and create a new public entrance using one of the Hall's rear windows. The modern block is partially retained, re-ordered internally, and then detailed to match the newer fabric.

Our design adds a function room, upgrades ancillary spaces and accentuates the many historic elements.

Planning permission has been secured for a contemporary kitchen and dining room extension to a family home in one of Norwich's leafy conservation areas. The design is compact and is based upon a suite of natural materials with an assymetric roof form. A glazed triangle to the rear, with folding doors and deck extend the living space out into the garden.

It was imperative to keep the external building envelope rational as we were designing for a self-build client with a challenging budget. The Architects were able to add a dramatic curved wall leading into the new kitchen space, with a feature roof-light over the new family dining area.

We recently gained full Planning Permission for an attractive new dining space and general remodel of a large family home in mid Norfolk. The design takes advantage of leafy views over a mature garden and further out to a water-side landscape of reeds and willow trees.

Large areas of glazing will permit inside-outside living and this principle is extended to the first floor main bedroom suite where the corner of the building will be opened up and completed with a minimal glass balustrade.

Wilde & Wilde were commissioned by the owner of a historic Water Mill in Norfolk to design a kitchen extension to the rear of the Mill House. Elements of the site date back to the Domesday Book, and the Mill and Mill House are Grade II Listed.

We investigated several design concepts, avoiding the obvious lean-to or cat-slide roof option, in favour of a gable design which offers the best natural lighting conditions internally and retains important views of the adjacent garden.

After gaining Planning and Listed Building Consent, we completed the detailed drawing package and specification and the project is nearing completion.

The Architects were asked to work with robust materials that would be long lasting, and suited to the north-facing elevation of the Watermill. Our clients chose a standing seam zinc roof and aluminium windows, which would be in contrast to the main building.

For such a small project, completed on a demanding budget, the spatial sequence through to the dining room is surprising (as can be seen from the sketch section above) and the way in which light now enters a formerly dark series of spaces is delightful.
