Londoners Steve and Scott restored a damp, dingy cottage in lovely North Norfolk with a strict budget of £20k. 

A small, gloomy terrace house didn’t make this mother and daughter happy — so they built a beautifully light home in their overgrown garden. 

On a former Shepherd’s Bush breakers yard site stands the amazing Tin House. It’s up for RIBA house of the year.

A young London couple snapped up an old Victorian house at auction without even viewing it, hacked out its seven bedsits and created their stunning family 'forever' home. 

A giant sash window and a sculptural staircase were the keys to turning a dark Victorian terrace house into a bright, spacious modern home for a young family in Bayswater.

This 'garden with a house' was built on a budget and designed in a butterfly shape with sedum roof to encourage wildlife.

After some ingenious planning, this Regency gem was transformed into the ideal home for two City high-flyers and their young children. 

First they fell for each other, then for a tumbledown East End cottage that needed a complete renovation.

The transformation of this dark, two-story Walthamstow house with a 'total green retrofit' has been shortlisted for the 2019 New London Architecture Don't Move, Improve! awards.
