A contemporary residence completed in 2023, designed for a private client, featuring durable natural materials and a practical layout that balances shelter, environmental observation, and privacy.

Our intrepid clients wanted a home that was uncomplicated, economical and practical; providing shelter from the elements whilst allowing observation of the surrounding environment, and maintaining privacy from neighbours and the street. With a palette of durable, natural materials, locally sourced, and elevated with colour. Utilising a PLT (parallel laminated timber) floor and roof system the home came together on budget and in good time.

“We're delighted with your design and services. Your expert advice has been hugely helpful in creating a house that we will be comfortable in, and which suits our budget and lifestyle. We really appreciated how you both communicated with us at every stage, but especially at the beginning. You listened to what we wanted, inquired to learn more about how we want to live, and then added your expertise and professional suggestions to create a dwelling we think will be excellent and well suited for us.”
