Brief

The brief was to create a pavilion on the grounds of this magnificent house, to be used as a games room and for functions etc. This was achieved via a single storey side Extension. It was a duo-project with internal reconfigurations on the ground floor to create a new kitchen in the main house. They were also thinking of replacing detached garages with a bungalow, although this aspect was later shelved in favour of the extension only.

Design for the games room

This fabulous leisure pavilion in Esher is one of our signature projects because it shows how much we love to exceed the brief by making a great design which also delights the client with their new space.

Leisure pavilion / games room in Surrey

We used traditional influences with the lines of the large skylights in order to be sympathetic to the character of the area. We also went for natural materials for the same reason. However we added a modern feel to the new extension which tastefully contrasts the host building which was a large detached house in beautiful grounds.

Our client in Esher requested all our services from 3D immersive design, interior design, planning drawings and submission, building regulation drawings for building control, tender packs to make sure the builders adhere to the design materials specified, and project management to put the client in the driving seat as regard satisfaction with the builders service.

Part-way through the process, the client decided between design options, incurring an additional phase. His needs were such that we felt we could offer several options so that this unique and novel project could be as rich as possible in terms of functionality and enjoyment of the space.

This was an extension, but we can easily create a games room as an outbuilding. We can help you obtain planning consent quite easily as it is for leisure and not a habitable construction.

Our proposal was approved by Elmbridge Council. Our standard service always offers a second option for the same quote with the planning services and if you instruct our 3D Immersive Design package, we create unlimited revisions until our client is pleased with the proposal. Our 3D service is an effective tool for convincing planning officers that your build will not be contentious but will blend with and enhance its surroundings.

3D renders can help you visualise your games room build before it starts, which is a good time to make changes. They are even handy to show friends and relatives your proposal, as well as for persuading neighbours that your build will not adversely affect their light or enjoyment of their garden. For some examples, please see the link above.
