Contemporary extension: modernise your home with style

The contemporary extension is characterised by its minimalist style and geometric forms. The straight lines and well-defined angles create a refined aesthetic that harmonises perfectly with modern architecture. This understated design allows the materials used to be showcased and bright and airy spaces to be created.

The contemporary extension comes in a multitude of configurations to meet all needs and desires. Whether you want to create a summer lounge, a dining room overlooking the garden, a light-filled office or a relaxation area by the pool, the possibilities are endless. This flexibility makes it possible to design a customised extension that will adapt perfectly to your lifestyle and the architecture of your home. Our experts take into account your desires, your budget and technical constraints to offer you personalised solutions, from light management to thermal performance, to build your ideal home extension.

With their modern and refined design, contemporary extensions bring real added value to your home. They rejuvenate the appearance of your house and give it a unique and distinctive character. This neat aesthetic is sure to charm your guests and give a new dimension to your living space. Our services include complete design customisation for harmonious integration with the architectural style of your home.

Thanks to their high-quality materials and thermal performance, contemporary extensions offer you a comfortable living space whatever the season. In summer, natural ventilation and shading systems allow you to enjoy the coolness. In winter, reinforced insulation and high-performance glazing retain heat for a cosy atmosphere. You can therefore enjoy your extension all year round in a pleasant atmosphere, whatever the weather outside.

To guarantee the success of your contemporary extension, it is essential to define your project well in advance. Determine the objective of this enlargement, the necessary surface area and the specific arrangements you will need.

Don't hesitate to call on our AKENA professionals to assist you in this process and draw up precise specifications.

For a successful integration, your contemporary flat-roof extension must harmonise with the architectural style of your house. Choose materials and colours that blend in well with the existing while adding a touch of modernity. Also consider landscaping the area around the extension, such as the terrace or garden, to create a smooth and coherent transition between the different spaces.

Finally, don't forget to draw up a realistic and detailed budget for your extension project. Take into account the cost of materials and labour, as well as finishing touches and unforeseen expenses. An experienced AKENA professional will be able to help you accurately cost your project and find the best options for optimising your budget without compromising on quality.

Aluminium is characterised by its lightness, strength and ease of handling, making it an excellent choice for frame structures. Despite its light weight, it offers exceptional weather resistance and durability. Its minimal maintenance requires only occasional cleaning to preserve its impeccable appearance over the years! In addition, aluminium offers great design flexibility, allowing for customised extensions that fit in perfectly with the architecture of your home.

At AKENA, we use high-quality aluminium with Class 2 textured finishes, QUALICOAT and QUALIMARINE approved. These innovative finishes ensure increased resistance to UV rays and external aggressions, thus preserving the colour and value of your extension in the long term.

In terms of durability, the contemporary extension stands out thanks to resistant and easy-to-maintain materials such as aluminium. At AKENA, we only use Class 2 textured finishes, with the QUALICOAT and QUALIMARINE labels, for optimal durability. In terms of thermal and sound performance, the two types of extension are equally effective. A traditional structure with thick walls offers good natural insulation, while a contemporary extension can incorporate advanced materials that meet the latest standards. In both cases, your comfort will be preserved in summer and winter.

For optimal enhancement of your property, it is essential that your contemporary extension blends in harmoniously with the existing architecture of your house. At AKENA, we strive to create aesthetic and functional continuity between the old and the new, taking into account the materials, colours and original architectural style.
