Hi, I’m Stephanie. I run House Extension Studio, a friendly architecture and design practice supporting homeowners across Manchester and beyond.

I’m an architect with over 12 years’ experience working on all kinds of homes across Greater Manchester and the North West, from compact side extensions to full renovations and new builds. Before setting up House Extension Studio, I worked at award-winning practices where I learned how to deliver great design across different budgets, timelines and project types.

These days, I focus on helping homeowners make the most of their homes through thoughtful, exciting and practical design. That might mean a kitchen extension, a loft or basement conversion, or reworking internal layouts to suit changing needs.

Every project is different, so I keep things flexible and collaborative. However you choose to work with me, I’ll guide you through the process with friendly, straightforward advice.
