Barkham Project

This project offered a unique opportunity to enhance a newly built home by maximising its potential at the rear. Our team identified an underutilised 28m² external area that added little practical or visual value to the property as it stood. By seamlessly integrating this space into the existing kitchen footprint, we transformed it into a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — exactly the kind of space the family had always wanted but never quite had.

The extension was designed with a clear intention: to expand the home's functionality while simultaneously elevating its flow, light, and overall aesthetic. Generous glazing draws the outdoors in, and the open-plan layout allows the space to flex between everyday family life and entertaining with ease.

The result is a true reflection of the Fortis approach — strength, purpose, and precision in every build. A project that proves you don't always need a grand brief to achieve a genuinely transformative outcome.
