HOUSING + RESIDENTIAL
Our portfolio features high-quality housing schemes, social housing, listed and historic structures, and bespoke private homes.
Submerged Cotswold House
An exciting, private house which is split into two distinct halves. The contemporary half of the building is submerged into the hill and accommodates two en-suite bedrooms, a family bathroom and hall. The roof is grassed, doubling up as an open garden area.
Helicopter Hanger Family Home Conversion
Conversion of a former helicopter hangar in Oxfordshire into a family home, retaining key features like hangar doors and metal cladding. The design introduces new elements such as inset balconies, double-height spaces, and retractable fins for solar control, with the project targeting Passivhaus standards for energy efficiency and low carbon use.
Industrial-Style Suburban Homes
This innovative housing scheme transforms a former garage site into inward-facing courtyard terraces, ensuring privacy while maximizing space efficiency. The design features zinc-coated aluminium mansard roofs and incorporates timber frame construction, with parking beneath the terraces.
Easter House, Southwark
Former doctor's surgery redeveloped into a five-storey façade with a set-back sixth floor, housing a two-level penthouse offering panoramic views of London.

Stone Barn Redevelopment
This development converted 3 stone barns, added 5 new homes, and created a farm courtyard, using local stone, slate roofs, and timber windows for a cohesive rural aesthetic.
