The double brushed Yakisugi (Japanese Cypress) Shou Sugi Ban from is installed on this kitchen extension. We think it looks great against the weathered soot-stained London stock brickwork. Next task is to install the Ash exposed timber joists from It's all starting to come together nicely!

A few progress photos of our rear extension project in Forest Hill. The steel framed doors and windows are in. Next steps will be to install the timber ceiling and exposed Ash joists, and the external charred timber cladding. Excited to see this project come together!

The Control Room plywood window frame is now installed in the recording studio. The interior of the studio is also clad in modular plywood panels which allows easy access to concealed audio/ electrical services and provide substrates to variable acoustic surfaces.

We're absolutely delighted to receive planning permission today (via the Planning Inspectorate appeal process) for this new-build house near Epping Forest. Can't wait for the next stages to follow to realize this project onto site. Watch this space!

A few images of our 4 storey new-build residential scheme currently under construction in Forest Hill in south-east London. The development will provide a mix of one, two and three bedroom flats. The external facades will be finished in corten steel, zinc and London stock brick.

Thursday throwback!
We love looking back (and occasionally visiting) this project in the Blackheath conservation area. Works included reconfiguration and extensions to the ground floor areas, modifications to an existing lift, and refurb works throughout. As well as creating shelter and shade, the slim cantilevered roof creates a strong horizontal emphasis that 'grounds' the house connecting it to the external landscape.

Things are starting to take shape on this interesting project for our amazingly talented client - a garden studio building clad with Larch and finished with a wild flower green roof. Excited to see the completed building - watch this space!

Beautiful morning for a site visit to to see this project which is nearing completion. The Cedar 'board-on-board' cladding contrasts beautifully against the blue sky. Zinc cladding and white render will complete this two storey rear and side extension to an existing 1030s detached house.

Excited to see the garden design and landscaping by take shape over the coming weeks.

“Bronze is the mirror of the form...” Aeschylus.

Very pleased to share a few photos of our recently completed ‘bronze-house’ project in the Brockley conservation area - a rear addition which echoes the form the conservatory it replaces. The apex of the roof is tweaked to create an interesting contemporary portico geometry which provides shelter and shade. The bronze cladding will weather and patina over time to a dark bronze colour. Sections of the external form have been cut away to create tension and asymmetry also allowing daylight and sunlight to pe*****te into the interior spaces. More pics to follow.
