making more extraordinary buildings and space.
We are a small design focused RIBA chartered architectural practice based in Bath and Kent with a passion for making that allows us to deliver more inspiration buildings.
We design buildings that thoughtfully respond to our clients’ needs, embody a strong sense of place and heritage, and honour the past through their detailed design and focus on craftsmanship. Balancing depth of character with innovation, our architecture integrates contemporary low-energy design at its core, ensuring we deliver altogether more soulful buildings.
We pride ourselves on providing a personal and friendly service aimed at helping our clients realise the best possible outcomes for their project, and always aim to exceed expectations within the design and finished building work we help deliver.
people
The journey starts with a conversation with you, our client. Our process revolves around understanding the needs of those using the building so we can create a tailored design unique to you and your project.
We believe buildings are for people and should enhance the lives of those using them.
place
We believe that good design requires an intelligent response to context and the inherent character of a place, and the narrative of its heritage.
The context of a site informs the way we approach our design, providing clues to guide the design process, inspiring the form and detail of a project. Understanding a site is also fundamental when defining the environmental and ecological parameters of a project.
space
Our goal is to create new spaces that inspire and whose special character is derived from the unique context in which a building engages, as well as a bold architectural design approach focused around the building user.
We believe the building interior is just as important as the external form and they should be considered together through a more holistic approach to design. For this reason interior design is an intrinsic part of our approach.
making
Our passion lies in the art of making, with our deep rooted interest in craftsmanship connecting us to construction on a deeper level.
We take care with the little things that make a building and space special, thinking carefully about how our buildings are put together, and the details that invite both the hand and the eye to explore.
We believe it’s this attention to detail, together with a careful consideration of the interior spaces, that make our projects more extraordinary.
sustainable design
Producing buildings that lower their impact on the environment and work efficiently to reduce their energy requirements is deeply rooted in our approach as conscientious architects, and underpins all that we do.
Whether new build or renovation, the performance of our buildings is considered from the early conceptual design stage through to their construction detailing and delivery onsite.
