Neil Kahawatte Architects is a RIBA Chartered Practice, specialising in the design and delivery of bespoke residential projects. As a North London architectural practice, we bring a tailored approach to every project, focusing on design excellence, sustainability, and maximising the potential of your property.
We have good experience working in the London Borough of Barnet and have successfully completed projects ranging from full house renovations and basement extensions to loft conversions and new-build homes across London and beyond. Our designs prioritise natural light, functional layouts, and sustainable materials, enhancing both aesthetics and energy efficiency.
We understand the unique character of the borough and craft bespoke solutions that respect the area's architectural heritage while embracing contemporary design. Our knowledge of local areas and regulations allows us to help clients navigate the complexities of the Barnet planning process.
Barnet’s suburban character is a combination of historic villages, green spaces, and diverse architecture, including Victorian and Edwardian homes, interwar, post-war and areas of modern development. Many properties fall within Conservation Areas, requiring careful planning to maintain the borough’s character when looking to upgrade.
Homeowners looking to extend, renovate, or develop properties can benefit from our expert guidance to navigate planning requirements, from Listed building consent to sustainability regulations. With a focus on heritage-led design and energy efficiency, Barnet balances growth with conservation, offering opportunities for sensitive restorations, adaptive reuse, and sustainable new builds that enhance its distinct architectural landscape.
