Sloe Cottage, Alfriston

We have redesigned this detached family home in the countryside by adding a contemporary single-story extension, replacing a garage, adjacent to the house, to create a spacious open plan kitchen and dining area while enlarging the living room within the existing house and introducing a slender pergola structure to the south facing enlarged terrace. The new design is in stark contrast to the existing building located on the fringes of Afriston village, allowing more daylight and views over the rolling hills. The building envelope is now complete, with the internal fitout finished within the south downs international park, blending the new part naturally with the existing structure.

Montpelier row, East Twickenham

We are starting works on the refurbishment and extension of an existing 1720’s Georgian Grade 2* listed terraced 7-bedroom family dwelling of around 390 m2 close to Marble Hill House, including the  construction of a potentially full width single-story rear extension with replacement of the existing rear infill kitchen extension, the conversion of the existing lower ground floor dining area and adjacent room to form an independent one bedroom nanny accommodation. We also redesign parts of the first & second floors to provide additional en-suite bathrooms, as well as an overall upgrade to the building envelope and thermal performance where possible, in close cooperation with the local conservation department.
