Residential Projects

Designs for living that combine quality, comfort, and timeless architecture

As an architectural firm, MATH architects designs homes, renovations, and additions that are fully tailored to your wishes, lifestyle, and future plans. We create high-quality living spaces where light, space, circulation, and materials come together in the best possible way. Whether it’s new construction, renovation, an addition, an extension, or the transformation of a private residence, we prefer to guide you through the entire process—from the initial sketch to completion.

Living is a personal experience. That’s why every project begins with listening, analyzing, and translating. The result is a custom design that works logically, feels comfortable, and lasts for years.

A custom design: living the way you want

Successful design is about more than just aesthetics. It encompasses spatial layout, comfort and how spaces are connected. That’s why we start every project by carefully analysing the property, the plot and the residents’ desires.

We examine how light moves through the home, which sightlines are important, and how spaces can be logically connected to one another. Based on this analysis, we develop a design that is both functionally and architecturally perfect.

Our designs are characterized by clear floor plans and a keen attention to detail. Natural light plays an important role, as does the creation of calm and balanced combinations of colors and materials. The spatial layout should be balanced but can also be surprising. Through thoughtful additions and renovations, we create a home that naturally complements the existing architecture while adding new value.

The result is a home that not only functions well, but also inspires and feels pleasant to live in on a daily basis.

Renovations and extensions

Renovating or adding to an existing home is often the most effective way to improve its liveability. By carefully examining the existing structure, we can create new spaces that blend in seamlessly with the rest of the home.

In many of our projects, we design extensions to the rear of homes to bring in plenty of natural light. This creates bright kitchen-dining areas or living spaces, which often become the heart of the home. Renovations can also be used to reorganise the floor plan, making the flow through the home more logical.

Depending on the situation, adding a roof extension or a rooftop structure can be a suitable solution for creating additional living space. This involves assessing the existing structure and the urban context to ensure that the addition integrates perfectly with the building and its surroundings.

Besides spatial improvements, we often incorporate sustainable measures, such as better insulation and updated systems. This makes the home not only larger and more attractive, but also more energy-efficient and comfortable.

Permits, Aesthetics, and Regulations

Permits are required for virtually every renovation or new construction project. For private clients, this can be a complex and costly process, as various rules and procedures are involved.

We take as much of this process off your hands as possible. This starts with conducting a permit check, followed by applying for an environmental permit and preparing all the necessary documents. We also assist with the process before architectural review boards when a design must be assessed for its spatial quality.

When a property has historic preservation value, we also handle the necessary historic preservation permits. In addition, we gather and document technical supporting data such as daylight calculations, ventilation requirements, structural analyses, and insulation values.

By coordinating these processes and liaising with municipalities, consultants and other stakeholders, we ensure that the project remains clear, manageable and predictable throughout.

With extensive experience in renovations, additions, rooftop extensions, and new construction, we manage a wide range of projects. Our transparent and structured approach guarantees control over scheduling, costs, and quality.
