From concept to construction.

Our design for Art By Arjo’s first retail store at the Corn Exchange, Leeds is now ready for site, with works beginning on 1st July.

Inspired by the character of the building and the detail found within Arjo’s illustrations, the space has been designed as a flexible gallery-retail environment that can grow alongside the brand for years to come.

A key feature of the scheme is a vintage plan chest, sourced by RE-VIVE and repurposed as part of the point of sale and display experience. Originally designed for storing architectural drawings and large-format artwork, it felt like the perfect piece to celebrate both the heritage of the building and the craft behind the work on display.

Trades are lined up, the drawings are complete, and we’re looking forward to bringing this one to life.

Next stop: site.

Seeing ideas move beyond sketches and renders is always one of the most rewarding parts of the process.

We’re incredibly excited to see the new Art by Arjo’s store begin to take shape, a space designed around flexibility, longevity, and the ability to evolve over time.

These visuals capture the ambition behind the project, but we’re looking forward to sharing the real thing very soon.

Watch this space.

The final spaces we’re sharing from the Ilkley Grove residence bring together movement, pause and personal retreat.

The landing and spiral stair act as a gentle transition between floors, a moment to slow down. From here, the work nook is intentionally tucked away; a quiet, functional space designed for focus without feeling disconnected from the rest of the apartment.

Mark’s bedroom continues the upstairs story, warm, understated and cocooning. Soft textures, natural materials and a restrained palette create a space that feels calm and grounded, designed for rest at the end of the day.

Across the project, the aim has been to rework the internal layout to better suit how the home is lived in now, creating spaces that flow, support daily routines and feel quietly personal.

More from this project soon as it moves from visuals into reality.

Within this project, the bathrooms have been designed to offer distinct experiences, responding to their position in the home and how they’re used.

The ground floor main bathroom is light and welcoming, combining a bath and open shower within a seamless micro-cement envelope. Wall and floor finishes flow continuously, anchored by a large wall-hung concrete basin and softened with matt black tiles and fittings for contrast without heaviness.

Upstairs, the shower room shifts in tone. Dark glazed porcelain tiles and deep lime-wash walls create a more intimate, cocoon-like atmosphere, a space designed to feel calm, enclosed and restorative.

Same project, same design language, but carefully tuned to how each space should feel.

These visuals are a direct response to the moodboards shared recently for this project, but they also reflect a fundamental shift in how the apartment flows.

Alongside developing the look and feel, we’ve rethought the internal layout from its existing form, opening up key spaces, improving flow, and creating clearer zones for living, cooking and relaxing. The aim was to make the apartment feel more intuitive and generous, without losing its sense of calm.

Natural materials, warm timber tones and soft colour accents carry through from the original concept, helping to tie the reconfigured layout together into a cohesive space.

More to follow as Ilkley Grove continues to evolve.

Upstairs at The Grove | Main Bedroom & Shower Room mood-boards.

Where the downstairs was light, open and quietly energising, the top floor shifts tone.

These spaces are designed to feel cocooning, calm and intentional, darker palettes, richer textures and softer light coming together to create a sense of retreat at the end of the day.

Natural materials, muted finishes and considered details help the bedroom and shower room feel restful rather than heavy. It’s less about contrast for contrast’s sake, and more about responding to how the space is used, and how you want to feel within it.

A quieter kind of luxury, designed for slowing down.

Which kind of spaces do you naturally gravitate towards. Light and open or dark and cocooning?

The Grove Residence.

We’re excited to share the early design direction for a returning client in this beautiful Victorian apartment overlooking The Grove in Ilkley. A setting like this calls for careful balance, respecting the building’s heritage while introducing a calm, contemporary layer for modern living.

Across these boards we’re exploring:
• Restored heritage details such as coving and panelling’s.
• Walnut joinery to bring warmth and depth.
• A palette of natural materials, soft stones and textured surfaces.
• Subtle modern elements to keep the spaces feeling timeless.

The aim is a home that feels quietly refined, grounded in its history but confidently current.

Next up, we’ll be sharing CGI renders of the spaces, followed by drawings and behind-the-scenes moments from the design process.

As always, it’s a pleasure working with returning clients and evolving a shared design language over time.
