Respecting History, Enhancing Life
Owning a listed property is both a joy and a responsibility. These homes hold stories in their beams, stone, and proportions and with the right care, they can evolve beautifully for modern life.
At Studio Mayfield, we specialise in bringing modern design to historic settings. We understand how to preserve what’s precious while creating spaces that work for the way you live now.

Start with Understanding
Every listed property is unique. Before making any change, we take time to understand its fabric and context. We work alongside conservation officers, surveyors, and craftspeople to ensure every detail is respectful and compliant.
Collaboration Is Key in Listed Property Renovations
Renovating a listed building can feel overwhelming. Our role is to simplify, guiding you through permissions, coordinating specialists, and bringing structure to what can feel uncertain.

Modern Living, Thoughtfully Introduced
Modern design belongs in old homes when done with care. That might mean integrating new bathrooms, lighting, or joinery in ways that complement the existing architecture. The result is subtle but transformative, spaces that feel cohesive, comfortable, and quietly elevated.

A listed home can still reflect modern personality. Whether that’s through colour, texture, or tailored layouts, we ensure the finished space feels personal and practical.
