Pleased to share photos of one of our adaptation projects that was completed last year.

A renovated and extended bungalow offers a fully accessible home for a young lady and her family.
The reconfiguration improves access and highlights the stunning views of the nearby valley. Inside, accessible and adaptable spaces are designed to grow with our client, fostering independence and comfort within her home.

Looking forward to sharing more photos in the coming week.

Introducing Stables

This low-profile, timber-clad home replaces an existing structure within the greenbelt, carefully designed to preserve openness and meet planning policy. The four-bedroom house includes a basement leisure suite with a swimming pool and games room, naturally lit via dramatic light wells and a sunken courtyard. A restrained material palette, green roof, and organic landscaping strategy help embed the building into its semi-rural setting, enhancing biodiversity and connecting the architecture with nature.

Taking a look back at Park House, a family home in the Heatons.

Behind the front door of Park House are plenty of surprises. Such as the glazed screen and panelled walls which extend the view through to the rear garden whilst the large clerestory window pulls light in from above.

We are currently preparing this scheme for planning.

At its heart the kitchen takes centre stage, a space designed for hosting and bringing people together. Generous glazing opens the extension into the garden, creating a fluid connection between inside and out.

Above, a new dormer transforms the existing roof conversion, opening it up with light and space to form the ultimate master suite.

Taking a look back at a project we completed last year.

The small side extension to this Edwardian terrace creates a new family space directly connected to the garden. The folded timber-lined rooflights bring a unique character and warmth to the space.

Happy to share some concept images of our latest scheme in Hale.

The form is informed by the geometry of the existing bay window, resulting internally in an extension that balances open-plan spatial qualities with the creation of distinct zones.

We are looking forward to developing this one further with our client.

Following our 5th Birthday last week we are taking a look back at the first project we completed, Atwood.

A slender addition to a Victorian townhouse maximises the potential of the plot by utilising redundant space at the side of the property. The main family space is elongated creating a more social environment.

On the first floor the extension connects into the existing beneath a frameless glass skylight, providing access to the new family bathroom and office space. The old brickwork to the side of the house is exposed internally, expressing the original character.
