Expertise
Contemporary design in an existing setting
Alteration
Whether you’re considering buying a property or planning changes to your current one, I can guide you through the architectural design process with clear, tailored advice.
Working within the existing structure of your home, I can help create a space that feels new, practical, and beautifully designed.
Conservation
I have direct experience in working on historic buildings and settings. I can offer practical advice on properties within the constraints of a conservation area and guide you through the consultation process and help with preparing documents for applications for obtaining the relevant permissions.
Interior
Redesigning an existing space is a way to reflect your current needs, lifestyle, and taste. When life moves on, our home follows.
As part of an internal refresh, I will give due consideration to the overall fabric performance as well as helping you with the aesthetics of the materials you choose whilst keeping a watchful eye on the sustainable options.
Lighting
Light is the key component of space, be it natural or artificial. I enjoy being able to bring light into your space as a driver for good design not as an afterthought.
I will plan natural and artificial lighting so your home feels comfortable, modern, and welcoming every day.
Specializations
Why employ an architect?
Give your project due consideration before you start. Making decisions on paper is by far more cost effective than embarking on one of life's big investments without clear decisions and a complete set of drawings.
Pre-planning and planning advice
Before you apply for a permission, lets have a conversation about your ideas. This is a simple 45min consultations to discuss your options without further commitment.
Once you have decided to move forward or think that you will benefit from a more comprehensive service, I can help you with developing a design brief and a sketch design.
I am experienced in putting together comprehensive applications for planning approval to avoid unnecessary delays.
Interior design
Not all projects will require planning approval. Perhaps what is needed is internal remodelling.
This can involve removing existing walls, changing services or putting in a beam to open up and enlarge an existing space.
I am interested in timeless quality of interior design with durable finishes which are within your budget, that can withstand the test of time.
Design documentation
I have skills in producing documentation for different requirements to suit different stages of the design: e.g. planning or building control approval and
costing.
Careful design development, coordination of different design disciplines (e.g. structural design) and change control can save you time and money before the projects gets to the construction stage.

Client reviews

"Milica helped us a few years ago on feasibility studies for the conversion of a period property. She was a pleasure to work with, took on board all of our needs and concerns, and came up with a series of possibilities that took everything into account. "

"Milica did some great work for St. Mary’s church in Primrose Hill when we wanted to inspire the congregation with ideas for how to improve and expand the space we have. She came up with some really helpful ideas which were presented in ways that helped everyone see the potential for reimagining our church."
