Converting that old, forgotten building could be the beginnings to your vintage yet modern new home, and make you and your design the talk of the town. Right from the beginning you can add your own personal touch to every inch of the building to provide your idealistic home for years to come. You could be the first in your village to give a marvellous construction makeover!

If you’re a fan of a vintage touch to the modern decor that we are continuously surrounded by, then a conversion could be your way forward. A water tower could be a climb up to your perfect home or an old church could provide a breath taking living space inside and out, or even a barn conversion could be your dream home.

There are endless options with such unique buildings. The original architecture of churches, schools and water towers are unusual for todays modern constructions. Rather than beginning again with efficient designs, why not adapt what used to be into something innovative and surprising. With such tall and highly situated windows in the old style buildings you get the benefit of overlooking the beauty of the city, town or countryside view whilst retaining all the bonuses of your own privacy. The light that the tall windows provide could let in the seasonal sunbeams or even an array of colour through original stained glass windows. The various inventive structures provides quirky aspects to certain parts of the building, like curved walls and slanted ceilings.

If an open plan living space is what you’ve always wanted, think about what a mezzanine could do in terms of creative space. Adding a spiral staircase could save on your floor space too. If you prefer smaller and cosier spaces, split the area up so that there is privacy for all family members. Depending on the structure of the build you could think about creating some rooftop living space, especially with a water tower building. With the creativity and knowledge from our award winning architects it could become suitable for all seasons and the perfect spot for sunbathing and soaking in your daily does of vitamin D.

The striking and intriguing architecture creates local affection and visitor appreciation. You could be the talk of your town for such an innovative conversion and fill visitors minds with endless possibilities and homeowner envy!
