Residential Architecture
We create innovative residential schemes ranging from single-family homes to large-scale housing developments. Our approach balances spatial efficiency with environmental considerations, ensuring homes meet modern living standards while respecting their surroundings. Projects like The Reach and Monier Road demonstrate our ability to deliver high-quality, sustainable housing in challenging urban contexts. Our designs prioritise natural light, ventilation, and community integration.
Urban Regeneration
Specialising in transforming underutilised urban sites, we revitalise communities through comprehensive regeneration strategies. Our work on the Gascoigne East Estate and Fish Island Village showcases our skill in merging new developments with existing infrastructure. We address social, economic, and environmental factors to create cohesive, future-ready neighbourhoods that enhance local identity and functionality.
Sustainable Design
Sustainability is central to our practice, evident in net-zero schemes like Farrimond House. We employ passive design principles, low-carbon materials, and energy-efficient systems to minimise environmental impact. Our projects adhere to rigorous standards such as the RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge, ensuring buildings perform optimally while reducing resource consumption throughout their lifecycle.
Custom Home Design
We craft tailored private homes that respond to clients' unique needs and site constraints. Projects like Gap House and Bronze Mews House exemplify our ability to maximise space in challenging locations while maintaining aesthetic coherence. Our designs integrate modern technology with timeless architectural principles, creating adaptable, energy-efficient living environments suited to contemporary lifestyles.
Masterplanning
Our masterplanning services create cohesive, scalable frameworks for large-scale developments. By analysing spatial relationships and infrastructure requirements, we design adaptable layouts that accommodate growth while preserving local character. Recent projects include strategic plans for Fish Island Village and the Dagenham Green masterplan, demonstrating our capacity to balance density with livability.
