About This Project
A contemporary private residence designed around natural light, open spaces, and timeless materials. The client wanted a calm, family-centred home that would feel generous without losing a sense of intimacy.
From the first concept sketches to final handover, our architects, engineers, and site team worked as one group. Regular reviews kept the client involved in every key decision.
02
The Challenge
The narrow site sat between two existing homes, which limited daylight on the lower level and restricted how far the structure could extend.
- Balance design ambition with a clear budget
- Coordinate multiple trades on a constrained site
- Deliver lasting quality without delaying the programme
03
Our Approach
We stacked the living spaces around a central light court and used deep cantilevered floors to shade the glazing while opening the plan to the garden.
- Detailed planning and milestone scheduling
- Early material selection and supplier coordination
- Weekly site reviews and transparent reporting
04
The Outcome
The finished home brings daylight into every main room, uses a restrained palette of oak, limestone, and white render, and was handed over on schedule.
