New buildings

Our approach to new residential buildings within historic settings is to create architecture that feels settled and appropriate to its place. Designs are informed by a close understanding of the site, its landscape and the wider built context.

Through careful use of materials, scale and form, new buildings are shaped to respect local character and sit comfortably within their surroundings. The aim is not to replicate historic buildings, but to produce long lasting designs that belong.
