The edges of our villages offer an opportunity for thoughtful, small scale growth, and we’re excited to share our latest project in Scotton, where we have recently submitted Technical Details Consent for five self-build homes.

The proposals are about finding an approach that feels right for the village, creating individual homes with a shared architectural language, while giving people the opportunity to build homes that reflect how they want to live.

The project recently featured in The Times as part of a wider piece looking at self-build and the role small developments like this can play in helping villages grow gently over time.

What if downsizing isn’t really about having less space, but about creating a home that works better for the way you want to live?

For many people, it’s a chance to rethink what they need from their home, whether that means adapting where they are, adding an annexe, finding somewhere single-storey or starting again somewhere new.

We’ve written a guide to help you think through some of the practical and personal questions, with a workbook to help you work out what really matters to you.

There’s no single right answer, and moving isn’t always the simplest option.

If you’re starting to think about what comes next, drop us an email at [email protected] and we’ll send you a copy of our guide!

Ivy Lodge has been the backdrop to a summer full of weddings, and we’ve loved catching glimpses of the celebrations taking place here.

Has anyone here been lucky enough to attend a wedding at Ivy Lodge since it opened? We’d love to hear what you thought.

It’s one we’re really proud of.

The rain has arrived, and we’ve been thinking about outdoor spaces designed to be enjoyed in every season.

Tucked up amongst the tree canopy at Elmore Treehouses, this might just be one of those places that’s even better when it rains.

A fond farewell to Arnav! After a well-earned break, which we hear has involved repeat watches of The Odyssey, Arnav will be returning to Cardiff to continue his master’s.

He will be very much missed at MHW and we wish him the very best of luck with the remainder of his Part II. Thanks for all your hard work Arnav, it’s been a pleasure having you as part of the team!

There’s a quiet satisfaction in seeing an idea evolve from drawing to reality. Thoughtful design, careful craftsmanship, and a respect for the existing building come together to create a home that sits quietly within its landscape, opening to light, views, and nature.

Planning submitted!

This multi-plot self-build scheme in the Cotswolds has been shaped by its landscape from the very beginning, embracing the hillside rather than fighting it.

Designed with local character and future self-builders in mind, it’s a project that reflects our belief that thoughtful architecture begins with understanding its place.

Working alongside our sister company , we’re looking forward to helping bring this vision to life and supporting future self-builders through the next stages of the journey.

Some projects only get better with time.

We’re pleased to share these wonderful recent photographs of a contemporary extension we completed several years ago.

Designed to sit sensitively within its conservation setting, the project reminds us that thoughtful architecture has a lasting impact. It continues to inspire new clients today, balancing old and new in a way that has matured beautifully over time, quietly settling into its surroundings.
