At Karenna Wilford Architects, we are passionate about creating spaces where timeless character and contemporary living exist in perfect harmony.

Britain's rich architectural tapestry — from Georgian townhouses to Victorian terraces and Grade II listed cottages — inspires us daily, but how do we seamlessly blend the old and the new?

Natural light has an extraordinary impact on a home. It enhances aesthetics, uplifts mood, improves energy efficiency, and creates a warm, welcoming environment for you and your family. Whether you're seeking simple, cost-effective updates or dreaming of transformative architectural changes, we’ve compiled our expert advice to help you brighten your living spaces with natural light.
