Design and Build in Fulham, Creating Homes That Match the Way Fulham Families Live.

Fulham has changed. What was once a location dominated by traditional layouts and compartmentalised homes is now home to families and professionals who expect space, light, and flexibility, without leaving the area they value.

For more than 16 years, NU Projects has helped Fulham homeowners re-imagine and rebuild their properties through carefully planned design and build projects, creating homes that work for modern life while protecting long-term value.



Why Fulham Homeowners Are Choosing to Rebuild Rather Than Move


Fulham’s appeal lies in its balance, village atmosphere, green spaces, strong schools, and proximity to central London. As families grow, many homeowners face a choice, move further out or adapt the home they already love.

Design and build offers a smarter alternative.

Through considered refurbishment, extension, and reconfiguration, Fulham properties can deliver:

  • Open-plan family living without losing character

  • Improved natural light and flow

  • Better connection to gardens and outdoor space

  • Additional bedrooms and flexible workspaces

  • Modern services hidden within period fabric



NU Projects specialises in unlocking this potential without eroding the architectural integrity that gives Fulham homes their value.


Designing for How Homes Are Actually Used


Modern Fulham living is no longer about formal rooms and rigid layouts. Homes now need to perform multiple roles, family living, entertaining, working from home, and future-proofing for long-term occupation.

NU Projects approaches design and build with lifestyle first, shaping layouts around:

  • How families move through the home

  • Sightlines, light, and volume

  • Practical storage solutions

  • Acoustic separation where needed

  • Seamless integration of kitchens and living spaces

The result is a home that feels intuitive, not forced.


Adding Value Without Over-Developing


One of the biggest risks in Fulham design and build is over-development, adding cost without proportional value.

With 16 years of local experience, NU Projects understands where investment adds genuine return and where restraint protects long-term resale.

This includes:

  • Sensible basement strategies

  • Balanced extensions rather than maximum footprint

  • Quality of execution over excessive specification

  • Structural improvements that future buyers value

Design decisions are made with both day-to-day enjoyment and future value in mind.


Period Homes, Thoughtfully Modernised


Fulham’s Victorian and Edwardian houses were not designed for modern living, but they can be adapted without losing their identity.

NU Projects specialises in:

  • Retaining original proportions and detailing

  • Introducing contemporary elements subtly

  • Upgrading insulation, services, and performance

  • Creating contrast between old and new without conflict

This approach ensures homes feel evolved, not erased.


Why a Design and Build Approach Works in Fulham


Design and build is particularly effective in Fulham, where space is tight and coordination is critical.

By integrating design, cost, and construction under one team, NU Projects delivers:

  • Faster decision-making

  • Fewer compromises during build

  • Better cost control

  • Clear accountability

This joined-up process reduces stress and creates better outcomes.


Sixteen Years of Shaping Fulham Homes


Over more than a decade and a half, NU Projects has worked on a wide range of Fulham properties, from modest refurbishments to full structural transformations.

This depth of experience allows us to advise clients honestly, challenge unnecessary complexity, and guide projects toward solutions that endure.


Design and Build in Fulham, Built Around Life, Not Just Layouts


A successful Fulham home is not defined by square footage alone. It is defined by how it supports daily life, adapts over time, and holds its value.

NU Projects designs and builds homes that work now and continue to work years into the future.
