The Fosse project just north of Bristol involved working with landowners to explore the potential of their site. We did this through collaboration with property market experts to assess the type and size of properties that the area required.
We proposed a range of building designs which maximises the site potential and chances to secure planning consent.
Sympathetic ground floor and attic conversion to a family home.
Finished ground floor extension and attic conversion
Pendle Road is a ground floor extension as well as loft conversion for an end of terrace period London family home. It provides extended ground floor living space creating a new open plan kitchen and dining room. On the second floor an new master bedroom with ensuite and walk in wardrobe were created through the conversion of the attic space.
A simple elegant box protrudes from the rear of the property offering a comfortable new space with garden views. To maximise light, views to and from the garden and form more interesting and usable spaces the façade has a step back to on corner.
Kitchen & dining room extension
New hallway leading to the new extension
Roof lights flood the kitchen and dining space with natural daylight and allow light to penetrate into the heart of the house.
The attic conversion extends the roof space out towards the garden with two new ‘dormer’ spaces. The master bedroom suite takes up the whole of the second-floor attic conversion creating a light and airy space.

Gaining planning permission for this project required an intensive and collaborative engagement with the planners. This culminated in full planning consent without extension of time nor compromising the space and quality of the project.
The Music Room is a studio annex space in the heart of the Dorset countryside.
The studio provides a secure and warm environment for the client’s business. The project was very much driven by a demanding performance brief to suit the clients acoustic requirements.
The proposal is a ‘self build’ kit house that can be easily and quickly erected onsite without the use of scaffolding, complex tools or high levels of skills. The environmental performance of this project is excellent providing a well-insulated and airtight space that requires minimal heating.
Satchell Lane is a full first floor extension to a bungalow within a picturesque costal village.
Currently under construction, we will keep you posted on our progress.
Nearly water tight – Front elevation glazing going in.
View out towards the river from the main first floor living space. The large sliding doors have just been installed.
Finishing off the large glazed gable ends – nearly there..
Our brief was to provide a new way of living in the property by creating a large open plan kitchen dining, living and study space to the first floor whilst minimising impact on the existing ground floor.
The design opens new views towards the estuary providing a clean bright open space with a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. It was described as “an elegant architectural example of a clean-cut modern design that improves the standard of architecture in this position enhancing the setting of the conservation area.“ by Eastleigh’s Built Heritage Consultant.
