Our
services

XUL Architecture provides full residential architectural services, guiding clients from early feasibility and concept design through planning applications, technical drawings, build, and construction coordination. As one of the leading design-focused architecture firms in London, we offer full house refurbishments, new builds and bespoke residential projects that transform how people live in their homes.

XUL Architecture regularly works with homeowners across North London, particularly in areas such as Belsize Park, Hampstead, Hampstead Gardens Suburb, Highgate and Muswell Hill. Our familiarity with these neighbourhoods helps ensure projects respond to the architectural character and planning requirements of the area.

XUL Architecture specialises in high-quality residential projects including substantial home extensions, full house refurbishments and bespoke residential new build designs. Our work often involves rethinking existing homes (not on new build) to improve layout, introduce natural light and create better connections between living spaces.

Among London architecture firms, XUL Architecture is known for its innovative design approach, embedded in the principles of neuroarchitecture. We understand the emotional impact that light and space has on human wellbeing, and thoughtfully design spaces in alignment with our clients’ psychological needs. By combining the science of light with biophilic interior design, we deliver homes that are both architecturally refined and enjoyable to live in every day.

Yes. Many homes in North London are located within conservation areas, particularly in neighbourhoods such as Belsize Park and Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust. XUL Architecture has experience designing sensitive architectural solutions that respect the character of these areas while improving the functionality and quality of the home.

Our design approach begins by understanding how clients live and what they want their home to feel like. As a design-led architecture practice in London, we focus on improving natural light, spatial clarity and the connection between rooms to create homes that support comfort and wellbeing. Our goal is simple: to design spaces that optimise a healthy mind and body.

Residential architecture requires a deep understanding of how people live in their homes, as well as expertise in adapting existing buildings and new builds.

Many of the top architecture firms in London focus on commercial buildings or large developments, whereas specialist residential practices concentrate on designing homes that improve everyday living.

XUL Architecture focuses exclusively on residential design, working closely with homeowners to create calm, light-filled spaces that enhance comfort, functionality and long-term liveability.

The first step is an initial consultation with our team. During this meeting we discuss your property, your ambitions for the project, and the architectural opportunities available. After these fundamentals are confirmed, we prepare a fee proposal and begin working on the project once we are formally engaged. From there, we develop a feasibility study and design strategy that sets the direction for the project.
