About us

 

We are a small architectural practice specialising in the design of bespoke contemporary houses as well as conversions, extensions, re-modelling, and renovations of existing buildings.

 

Based on the Jurassic coast, we have been working on residential projects throughout the South of England since 2014. Having been lucky enough to have the opportunity to work on some exciting and challenging projects from day one we continue to strive for high quality design in everything that we do.

​The practice has gone from strength to strength despite the challenging times we have faced. We are currently a small but  productive team, allowing us to be efficient and give clients a personal service. We respond to each brief with creativity to deliver a solution that best meets the client’s requirements.

Ethos

 

Our aim is to maximise the potential of every space and place through well considered design. Solutions, process and scope of work are tailored to the project and the individuals we are working with.

 

Inspired by our landscape setting we design buildings that are sensitive to their context and sustainable in the way they perform. We believe a building and most specifically a home, must be a unique response to the site and clients with no preconceived ideas about what the building should be. So, every building we design is different as each site, set of clients and their brief requires a completely fresh design approach.

We encourage our clients to make environmentally responsible choices where possible throughout the design process and specification stages as we believe this to be a key responsibility of ours in the times in which we find ourselves.

A new house or even an extension will consume a great deal of resources in its construction, but the impact can be significantly reduced by using sustainably sourced or recycled materials wherever possible and ensuring the ongoing energy requirements for the building are kept as low as possible and are met from renewable energy sources. This integrated and holistic approach to the construction of a building not only addresses the need for environmentally responsible design in practical terms but also encourages a more sustainable way of life. Using sustainable materials and construction techniques and through collaboration with a range of design consultants, specialists, and suppliers we ensure that our proposals that are well considered and meet the highest standards of energy efficiency. 

We believe that spaces and places that promote health and happiness can have a positive impact on our quality of life so our aim is to help people build enriching spaces in which to live, work and play.
