Last week, we hosted a work experience student who was keen to explore the world of architecture! Jaxon was an absolute pleasure to have as part of the team - and we were blown away by his technical skills!

Jaxon had already designed his dream home in a video game, so his challenge for the week was to draw it up in our architectural software. He picked it up incredibly well and produced some brilliant drawings.

These are Jaxon's concept design floor plans. He also managed to create some 3D drawings, which we'll share soon!

As well as learning the drawing side of things, Jaxon had a full overview of our process from start to finish, had a go at using our Leica survey instrument, learned about different types of planning applications and experienced working in an office environment for the first time.

Several things to note here:

1) We are in the new office! There are still a few tweaks here and there but we are nicely settled in and loving our new surroundings.

2) The internal temperature seems to either be the same, or lower, than the outside air temperature.....and despite it being almost the middle of June, we are lighting the log burner on a regular basis to keep us nice and warm! On one hand, we love it, on the other hand, why are we doing this in June 😂

3) Office doggo has taken up residence in the prime spot. And not enjoying having her photo taken - doing her very best to look everywhere except the camera!

We'll show you some more sneaky peeks soon 🥰

This week the big bosses celebrated their birthday! Lyndon and Hannah share a birthday, so we like to spoil them a little.

Cake, cards and a comedy "cook together" birthday kit - which we may share some snippets of at some point...!

Happy birthday to the best bosses anyone could ask for 🥳

We just LOVE a property with character and this beautiful farmhouse certainly has a lot! This was one we surveyed recently as the clients are hoping to replace an existing structure and extend above it.

More sunny survey days please!

Another little peek at some of those colours on the walls in our new office - and we now have lighting! Our very own Nigel has been tasked with tiling the bathroom and he's doing a grand job so far.

It's come such a long way in the last few months - next step is carpets, media board and desks!

Take a look at the elevations and floor plan we designed for this barn conversion and extension project - reimagining an existing barn as a modest, three-bedroom family home.

Our part in this project is now complete, having successfully gained planning permission, navigating building control and creating fully detailed construction issue plans for the client.

We'll be very excited to see this design come to life in the near future!

If you've been thinking of a barn conversion, an extension to your home, or even building your dream home from scratch - get in touch!

🎉 Planning permission granted! 🎉

We’re delighted to share that approval has been secured for a thoughtfully designed two-storey extension to this stunning rural home.

Our clients wanted to expand their living space while retaining their existing conservatory, so the design carefully balances both. The extension will create a more spacious kitchen on the ground floor and an additional bedroom above, enhancing comfort without compromising the home’s original charm.

With breathtaking views around, this project is all about making the most of its beautiful surroundings.
