A trickle of delights… Part 5 A sleek number for the project that evolved into The Drive. At this point we tested 2 contrasting ideas (and finally built a more crafted timber clad design). But it allowed us to help the client understand the d
A trickle of delights… Part 4 This was from a few years ago, but we still love it! We moved the kitchen (and stairs!) back towards the garden and added a playful addition for a growing family. #home #notboring #individual
A trickle of delights… Part 3 There’s actually a secret room behind the curved timber wall! #retrofit #ifonly #barnconversion
A trickle of delights… Part 2. Testing out early ideas for Whitridge House. Connecting existing buildings, introducing sensitive materials and sketching instinctive massing. We loved how this developed in the end, but there’s still some
