What we doSix disciplines
The people who draw it, price it.
Architecture, interiors, construction and cost sit in the same studio. One contract covers all of it.
The processFour phases
Four phases, twelve stages.
You always know what happens next, and what it costs. The first price arrives early, not at the end.

How we work
Every project starts with a free call with Nick.
Nick founded NU Projects in 2010. He answers most calls himself.
Architecture, interiors, project management and construction. Building control, party walls and structural engineers too.
Reviews left by owners
What the owners say.
The design team created our dream Chelsea home, on budget and on time. Thank you.
The whole process was smooth and well managed. The standard of finish is excellent and every detail was carefully considered.
Communication was clear throughout, timelines were well managed. The final result exceeded expectations.
