Transform Your London Home with a Stunning Extension: 5 Expert Tips from 2V Projects

At 2V Projects, we understand that home extensions are a fantastic way to add space, value, and style to your property. Whether you're dreaming of a sleek, modern extension or a classic addition, we have the expertise to bring your vision to life. Here are five expert tips to make your home extension project truly exciting:

1. Combine Unique Materials

Break away from traditional brick. Consider adding timber cladding or dark zinc for a modern, striking look. You can even spice it up with a fully glazed corner for a sleek, minimalist vibe.

2. Skylights for Natural Light

Maximizing natural light is key to any extension. Skylights and orangeries are perfect for adding light and ventilation, creating a bright, airy atmosphere.

3. Orangeries and Conservatories

For a more elegant design, opt for an orangery or conservatory. An orangery, with its solid structure and large glazing, retains heat better, while a conservatory gives you that classic, open feel with glass walls and roof.

4. Glass Box Extensions

For a contemporary, ultra-modern addition, choose a glass box extension. The fully glazed structure offers an uninterrupted view of your garden, blending indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly.

5. Multi-Storey Extensions

Don’t limit yourself to a single story—go bigger! Multi-storey extensions can add significant space while combining materials like glass, timber, and zinc for a unique aesthetic. Note that extensions over 4 meters often require planning permission.
