Working with traditional and period buildings requires a respect and understanding of their history and context. We placed a contemporary extension next to an old building connected by a subtle glass link.

Clad in board and batten, the extension is a simple pitched roof structure, akin to a garden shed, which is clearly differentiated and subservient to the cottage. It is a modern, light filled space directly connected to the garden that acts as a counter point to the more traditional spaces in the main building.

The final phase of the conversion of these stone barns was to create a studio and wellness space.

The result is a simple restoration

Our founder Charlie talks about the community housing project in the village he lives and works in, which attempts to address the housing concerns facing many rural communities. The surprising reason to how it came about, especially given the amount of housing already being built, and the decision to approach the project in a holistic and sustainable way.

A listed cottage farmhouse with a very unusual plan. To make the most of the views from the garden, we created an extension to complement the existing cottage layout.

The result is a light filled kitchen dining and family room with generous sliding doors which open up to the garden and view beyond.

The simplicity of plywood demonstrated here for a coat hanging nook and dressing room joinery. The coat hooks have been positioned to mirror the roofline of the house - a tired bungalow which was stripped back and adapted in to a low energy family home.

A light filled extension to a listed manor house where we used Glulam as a sustainable, lightweight structural solution.

This contemporary addition creates a cohesive kitchen, dining and living space that connects seamlessly with the main house, terrace and gardens.

The structural timber provides a natural aesthetic finish that works together with the interiors.
