Light filled kitchen and dining space in a Brooklyn Wellington home renovation and extension designed by Modal Architecture.

You may love your location but need more from your home: better light, another bedroom, an easier kitchen or spaces that connect properly. Modal helps you explore what to retain, what to change and where an extension could make the biggest difference. We design around the home you have and the life you want to live in it.

Find the changes that matter most

We begin with your priorities, budget and the frustrations you want to resolve. Reviewing the existing layout and available building information helps us explore practical options. Sometimes a more effective plan can achieve a great deal without a large addition; other projects need a broader rethink.

“They gave us a simple, straightforward process and took care of everything for us. It was easy!”

Connect old and new thoughtfully

A successful renovation considers how spaces flow, where daylight enters and how the house meets the garden. Materials and details can respect the character of the existing home while giving new areas their own clarity. We also discuss opportunities to improve comfort as part of the work.

Understand the existing building

Renovations can reveal conditions that are not visible at the outset. Surveys, investigations and specialist advice may be needed to confirm what is possible. We identify known constraints, coordinate the architectural information and explain the agreed consent and documentation scope.

“They were a delight to work with, carefully explaining the ins and outs of all stages of the process and provided ongoing support and design options as we moved through ideas.”

Prepare for pricing and construction

We can support early builder involvement and develop drawings that help the team understand the proposed changes. Construction support can be included by agreement, giving your builder a route for architectural queries as work progresses.
