Unlocking Hidden Space and Transforming a Home for Modern Living
At Biomorphis, we believe that every home has untapped potential. Sometimes, the most rewarding transformations come from rethinking existing spaces rather than simply adding more floor area.
This complete house renovation on South Lauder Road, Edinburgh, explores exactly that approach. By reclaiming previously boarded-up and underused areas, reorganising the internal layout and introducing new spaces, we have transformed the way the house functions.
A New Kitchen at the Heart of the Home
One of the main objectives was to create a new kitchen that could accommodate everyday family life as well as larger social gatherings.
We rethought the kitchen layout to improve circulation, making better use of the available space and creating a more natural flow between the different areas. As a result, the kitchen becomes a generous and sociable space, with enough room to host larger dinner parties without compromising its everyday practicality.
Furthermore, opening up the relationship between the kitchen, living room and garden creates a stronger connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, bringing a new sense of openness to the home.
Reclaiming Previously Unused Space
An important part of the renovation involved reclaiming areas that had previously been boarded up and effectively lost to everyday use.
By unlocking this hidden space, we were able to rethink the internal arrangement and introduce more useful accommodation without increasing the footprint of the property.
In addition, the revised layout incorporates carefully considered storage solutions, helping to make better use of the available space while keeping the main living areas uncluttered.
Improving Comfort and Functionality
Alongside the kitchen transformation, the renovation introduces several improvements to the home’s existing accommodation:
- A new kitchen with improved layout and circulation.
- A new ensuite bathroom.
- An enlarged existing bathroom.
- Additional integrated storage.
- Improved connections between the kitchen, living room and garden.
- A more efficient use of previously underutilised internal space.
Together, these changes create a more practical and flexible home, better suited to contemporary living and entertaining.
Visualising the Transformation
Our architectural visualisation and animation illustrate how the proposed renovation transforms the existing house, revealing the potential of spaces that were previously overlooked.
By combining careful spatial planning with 3D modelling, we help our clients understand the proposed changes and experience the transformation before construction begins.
