What a specialist builder does in South Kensington. Renovations, new builds, interiors, basements and commercial fit-out.

NU Projects, specialist builders in South Kensington

NU Projects is a design and build company working on high-end residential and commercial projects in South Kensington. We cover the design, the construction and the renovation, so one team carries the job from the first survey to handover.

Why owners appoint us

Our work is drawn and priced for the specific property rather than adapted from a standard scheme. That applies whether it is a new build, a period restoration or a commercial fit-out. Architects, interior designers and site managers sit in the same office, which is what lets a change to the structure and a change to the cost plan happen on the same day.

NU Projects was founded in 2010, so there are sixteen years of London residential work behind the team.

Our services

1. Home renovations and extensions

Renovations and house extensions in South Kensington, from a loft conversion or a rear extension through to a full refurbishment. We handle the design and the build under one contract.

2. New builds and bespoke developments

New build houses, from planning and design through construction to the interior finish. Thermal performance and airtightness are designed in rather than added at the end.

3. Interior design and fit-out

Our interior design team draws the scheme around how the house is actually used. That covers kitchens, walk-in wardrobes, joinery and open-plan living space.

4. Commercial construction and office fit-out

We also build for offices, retail and hospitality, where the programme and the out-of-hours working matter as much as the finish.

5. Basement conversions

A basement takes the rooms that do not need daylight, a cinema, a gym, a wine cellar or plant, and frees the floors above. Waterproofing, ventilation and drainage are designed as one system.

6. Smart home and sustainable building

Lighting control, automation and energy-efficient systems are coordinated with the structure by our in-house MEP team, so the cable routes exist before the plaster does.

The team

Architects, designers, a quantity surveyor, an MEP director and project managers, working in one office. See completed work in the project portfolio.
