FAQ

An architect is required for extensions, as they deal with planning detailed drawings that are essential considerations.

Some individuals do entrust contractors with project design and construction, but this approach can come with risks.
Having an architect involved in renovations ensures that your home addition is compliant with regulations, although there’s no legal requirement to hire one for any project.

There’s no legal requirement to involve an architect in your application for your extension’s planning permission.

That being said, architects can be incredibly useful and save you a lot of time and money in the long run for moving your extension ahead.

While architects are not required to offer their services for free, we do not charge for an initial consultation. This initial meeting allows for a discussion about your project requirements. However, you should anticipate paying for any detailed design or advice beyond this initial conversation.

Typically, from engagement, we aim to produce draft documentation within a 14-day period.

Architectural Landmarks in Wimbledon, London

Wimbledon is known for more than just tennis — it’s a place of deep architectural character. At Payte Architects London, we take inspiration from the area’s blend of historic charm and forward-thinking design. These local landmarks have shaped our understanding of context, craft and conservation, influencing many of our residential and commercial projects in SW19.

Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum

This renowned museum reflects Wimbledon’s global identity and architectural duality — combining heritage elements with modern interpretation. Its design balance informs how we approach adaptive reuse and exhibition spaces, especially when blending traditional structures with contemporary detailing.

All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club

This venue is a masterclass in blending legacy with innovation. The Centre Court’s retractable roof is a feat of engineering that doesn’t compromise aesthetics. We draw from its clean lines and considered expansion when planning roof structures or discreet modern interventions in historic settings.

(Wikipedia)

Wimbledon Village

Wimbledon Village offers a rich mix of Georgian and Victorian architecture alongside smart contemporary living. The village’s cohesive scale and subtle variation inspire much of our contextual approach — ensuring our work feels at home in its surroundings, whether period restoration or new build.

(Wikipedia)

St. Mary’s Church

A Grade I listed landmark, St. Mary’s Church features Norman elements, Gothic revival details and masterful craftsmanship. Its enduring presence and elegant massing are a reminder of timeless design — something we aim to echo through material honesty and restraint in our projects.

(Wikipedia)

Wimbledon Windmill

This restored windmill sits proudly in Wimbledon Common. It serves as a sculptural, site-specific structure that anchors its landscape. We take cues from its clarity of form and sensitivity to setting — key lessons in how architecture can respond to its environment.

(Wikipedia)

Cannizaro Park

This landscaped park surrounds a Palladian villa, once a private residence and now a cultural site. The balance between natural setting and architectural form here informs our work on garden-led schemes and green-view extensions — integrating architecture with the wider environment.

(Wikipedia)

Wimbledon Library

Though a more modern building, Wimbledon Library introduces sustainable thinking into civic architecture. At Payte Architects London, we support practical, flexible civic spaces — and often refer to this model when designing for accessibility, openness, and long-term adaptability.

(Wikipedia)

New Wimbledon Theatre

A cultural anchor for the area, the New Wimbledon Theatre is a well-preserved Edwardian venue with architectural flair. Its ornate facade and vibrant interior provide inspiration for public-facing architecture that embraces performance, detail and atmosphere — qualities we value deeply in commercial briefs.

Expanding Spaces Elegantly: The Role of Side Extensions in Wimbledon Homes

In Wimbledon’s vibrant and picturesque setting, homeowners are discovering transformative ways to expand their living spaces thoughtfully. Side extensions offer an elegant and practical solution, combining functionality and aesthetic appeal.

At Payte Architects London, we specialise in designing bespoke side extensions that enhance character while maximising space. This article delves into the dynamic benefits of side extensions, their sustainable design possibilities, the planning process, and inspiring examples of successful projects.

These insights empower homeowners with practical and innovative ideas to maximise the potential of their cherished properties.

Why Space Matters: Enhancing Wimbledon Homes with Side Extensions

Wimbledon’s lively community draws families, professionals, and students, all seeking practical yet charming living spaces.

While many homes brim with character, they often lack the versatility required for today’s dynamic lifestyles. By integrating side extensions, homeowners can craft thoughtfully designed areas such as inviting kitchens, contemporary living spaces, or practical home offices, without altering the timeless essence of their homes.

Payte Architects London brings deep experience in creating these solutions, blending modern functionality with architectural harmony.

Boosting Property Appeal: Why Side Extensions Are a Smart Investment

A cutting-edge side extension does more than offer extra space—it’s a transformative investment. In Wimbledon’s competitive housing market, properties with sustainable, innovative extensions stand out, offering unique charm and functionality.

This thoughtful enhancement not only elevates a home’s value but also appeals to discerning buyers seeking smart and practical living solutions.

With Payte Architects London guiding the design process, homeowners gain the advantage of expert planning and creative execution that resonates with both lifestyle and market appeal.

Unlocking Benefits: How Side Extensions Transform Wimbledon Homes

Side extensions open up timeless possibilities to rejuvenate your home with innovative features. Expansive glazing options, such as skylights or bi-fold doors, flood spaces with fresh natural light.

In Wimbledon’s traditionally styled homes, a thoughtfully designed side extension with elegant, contemporary elements creates a lively and inspiring contrast, transforming spaces into cosy, light-filled retreats.

At Payte Architects London, we’re passionate about balancing heritage charm with modern innovation, ensuring each project is uniquely tailored to its surroundings.

Tailored Solutions: Crafting Versatile Spaces with Side Extensions

Create a home that grows with you by adding a tailored side extension. These adaptable designs cater to modern, lively lifestyles—whether you envision a warm, inviting kitchen for family gatherings, a contemporary open-plan area for entertaining, or a practical, timeless home office.

Payte Architects London offers a collaborative design approach, ensuring every extension reflects your vision and enhances your home’s identity.

Seamless Transitions: Blending Indoor and Outdoor Spaces

Strengthen your connection to nature with a smart side extension that bridges indoor and outdoor living. Large sliding doors and expansive windows seamlessly integrate cosy interiors with charming garden views, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere.

In Wimbledon’s community-oriented neighbourhoods, this refreshing transition inspires both aesthetic elegance and practical outdoor engagement.

With Payte Architects London, you benefit from a design team that understands how to bring light, flow, and harmony into every corner of your extended space.
