NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle design and build in Marylebone W1, under one contract. The calculator gives your own range in a minute, by scope and finish. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.
Marylebone grew as Georgian terraces over shops, and most houses now hold several flats. Ceilings run high. Decorative ceilings and carved fireplaces survive in many first floor rooms.
Typical briefs fit a new kitchen, bathrooms and wiring into those historic rooms. One firm handles the heritage drawings, the costing and the joinery. Nothing gets lost between consultants.
ARB-registered architects we partner with work beside our own designers. Matt Coverley, our in-house quantity surveyor, measures each drawing and shows every rate. Westminster consents, building control and neighbour talks are ours to run.
Our Marylebone apartment covers 1,500 sq ft on a first floor, completed in 2024. Its period ornament was kept and repaired. A marble waterfall island now stands free in the double reception room.

- City of Westminster, whose City Plan edition dates from January 2026.
- Interiors
- Inside a listed house, consent extends to ornament such as ceilings and fireplaces.
- Street views
- Most of Marylebone is conservation area. Visible changes face careful review.
