Are you looking to extend, remodel, or build a home in Woodthorpe? At AM2 Architects, we specialise in residential design that elevates how you live — not just how your house looks. Whether you're opening up a 1930s semi, adding space to a modern family home, or planning a bespoke new build near Arnot Hill Park, we help you unlock the potential of your home with thoughtful, planning-savvy architecture.
Woodthorpe is a highly sought-after area with a mix of mature residential streets, conservation pockets, and rising demand for family-focused living. This blend calls for sensitive design and smart planning strategy — both of which we bring to every project:
Planning Expertise with Gedling Borough Council: We understand local planning expectations, including character guidelines for streets near Mapperley Plains and Woodthorpe Grange Park.
Client-Centred Design: We tailor each project to your lifestyle, budget, and aspirations — creating homes that feel personal, practical, and timeless.
A Calm, Clear Process: Whether you need light-touch advice or full project support, we guide you with structure, transparency, and confidence at every stage.
From bright kitchen-diner extensions to elegant side returns and two-storey upgrades, we design additions that integrate naturally into your home — improving space, flow, and family life.
Many homes in Woodthorpe were built with segmented layouts. We help reimagine your existing footprint for better light, movement, and modern function — often with transformational results.
Thinking of building on a backland site or replacing a dated structure? We design bespoke, planning-friendly homes that blend beautifully with their surroundings.
If your home sits within a sensitive area or near a heritage feature, we create context-aware designs and handle any special documentation needed for planning consent.
We embed energy-efficient detailing, breathable construction, and smart orientation into every project — for homes that feel better and perform long-term.
We don’t just respond to space issues — we design homes that live better. Families and homeowners across Nottingham choose AM2 for our blend of creative thinking, calm project management, and strong planning know-how. Whether you’re solving layout problems or designing your forever home, we help you do it thoughtfully and confidently.
We start with a conversation — listening to your goals, reviewing your home or site, and giving honest early advice.
We create intelligent, site-specific concepts that explore layout, massing, and aesthetics — helping you decide on the best way forward.
We prepare all required drawings, documents, and statements — managing your application through Gedling Borough Council with minimal stress.
Our detailed technical drawings allow for accurate builder pricing and a smooth, regulation-compliant construction phase.
If you’d like extra peace of mind, we offer construction-phase support to protect your vision, troubleshoot issues, and maintain quality.
Our project highlights showcase a diverse range of architectural designs, reflecting our expertise in delivering innovative, functional, and sustainable solutions. From modern new builds to thoughtful heritage restorations, each project demonstrates our commitment to client satisfaction and attention to detail.
