Recently in the studio we have been testing different materials and colour samples for the design of a new research centre.

The shared working environment brings together ornithologists, ecologists, and volunteers, supporting both focused scientific work and informal collaboration. Rather than treating material and colour as secondary finishes, we are striving for a building that blends into the landscape.

Before and afters of this recently completed project, the internal reconfiguration of a detached bungalow set within the Northumberland countryside. The design focused on creating a larger, more functional family room alongside seamlessly integrated storage throughout the home designed to meet the needs of our client.

12 milestones in 12 months

As we approach the end of the year, we’ve been reflecting on a hugely rewarding 12 months. Here are 12 highlights from 2025 and a glimpse of what’s to come in 2026:

1. Newham Hall Masterplan – We developed a masterplan for a 71-hectare site at Newham Hall for Middlesbrough Council, informed by specialist consultants covering drainage, ecology, BNG, transport and more. We were proud to present the proposals at a 12-hour public consultation in May.

2. Planning permission granted – Our proposals for a 93-bed student accommodation and retail scheme at Mount Oswald, Durham, were granted planning permission.

3. Lemington Methodist Church – We were delighted to contribute to the first phase of works, helping expand vital food and clothes bank facilities for the local community.

4. Elliott Residence – It’s been a pleasure to see our internal reconfiguration proposals for this beloved Northumberland home start on site.

5. Farewell Ayanda – After joining us in 2023, Ayanda became a valued team member. This summer he relocated to Brighton to be closer to family. We wish him all the best.

6. Quinquennial Inspections – Continuing our work with local Methodist Circuits, we carried out inspections at Ryton, Welcome and Castletown Methodist Churches.

7. Ava joined GRADON – We were delighted to welcome Ava as Apprentice Marketing Coordinator, bringing fresh energy and ideas to the team.

8. Kelly Residence – Planning permission was granted for extension proposals to this family home in Tyne and Wear.

9. Project completion – Our extension to this Gateshead manufacturing facility is nearing completion, supporting our client’s growth through the adaptation of existing space.

10. Aaron is an Architect! – After eight years of dedication, Aaron graduated from Newcastle University and qualified as an architect.

11. Nunthorpe Grange Design Code – Commissioned by Middlesbrough Council, we produced a design code for a 26.5-hectare site to guide high-quality future development.

12. Málaga study trip – Our annual study trip took us to Málaga, offering inspiration, cultural exploration and time to connect as a team.

Some of our team have recently visited Málaga for a study trip, exploring the city’s rich culture. We saw all different sides to Málaga - the city blends old and new, from Roman ruins to contemporary buildings. We have shared plenty of laughs along the way.

We’re looking forward to returning to Málaga for our next work-study trip! Over the years, these trips have given our te...

We’re looking forward to returning to Málaga for our next work-study trip! Over the years, these trips have given our team the chance to learn, connect, and gain new perspectives. We’ll be sharing highlights, insights, and reflections from our time there.

One angle, many possibilities.

We are currently exploring various façade options for the design of our upcoming field research station - a space that brings together ornithologists, ecologists, and volunteers. This project is more than just a building, it’s a place where ideas can grow, research can flourish, and people can stay, learn, and thrive. By blending innovation, sustainability, and community, we’re creating an environment that inspires collaboration and supports both knowledge and creativity. Exciting progress is underway as we turn this vision into a home for discovery and inspiration.

Ideas and opinions are welcomed!
