We are very pleased to be working with Belper Community Hall on their new outdoor space. The new raised balcony will be perfectly positioned to enjoy the Hall's gardens and woodland areas. Please 'follow' them to help support the good work they are doing.

These are a few artist impressions generated to show how the raised patio and 'wild flower' garden might look.

Not our usual kind of project in the office today. Ollie has been prototyping an inlet manifold to attach a 45 Weber carburettor to an Eaton Supercharger.

An interesting change from scale models of buildings.

In an historic meeting held in the Strutt Community Centre, Amber Valley Borough Council voted to approve the 2018 application to convert the mills to a mixed use of residential and commercial units.
The unanimous decision marks a huge milestone in the future development of the mills.
Congratulations to all the groups that have contributed to this success and of course to Our Belper Mills for flying the flag, attending meeting after meeting and being the social mouthpiece to the community.

We gained planning permission for this speculative build on Bosworth Drive in Newthorpe, Nottinghamshire.

A surprisingly complicated application on a piece of left-over ground from the when the road was developed.

Designed to blend seemlessly with the neighbouring 1980s / 1990s houses.

Taking the ferry across the Thames from Woolwich to North Woolwich is such a pleasure. The two ferries appear to dance with each other, synchronising their movements as they twirl out into the river’s currents, before gliding past each other and reconnecting with the jetty opposite. 🇬🇧
