Burford Flats
Tucked away, off the high street in the picturesque town of Burford in West Oxfordshire, this project is for 7 apartments located within a historic courtyard setting and with the top two penthouses in particular benefitting from amazing views out over the surrounding countryside. The site was previously occupied by a redundant office building and...
Trafalgar House Extra Floor
The main project was the upgrading of this listed office building adjacent to the Law Courts in the centre of Winchester. The building is actually a combination of 2 buildings, a historic traditional brick building and a 1970's concrete and brick office building that had previously been somewhat awkwardly combined into one. In addition to the...
Kingham Houses

Milnthorpe Lane
The proposal is for 4 contemporary low energy houses, located in a secluded part of central Winchester. The design responds to this unique green location with a series of houses of varying sizes, organised in a roughly linear arrangement within 3 buildings, 2 larger dwellings and one pair of semi detached houses. As a result...
Ember House
The design approach for the remodelling of Ember House was to create a high quality contemporary residential building, but based on extending and remodelling the existing Ember House, a redundant 1970′s office block. The scheme was for 2 additional floors of accommodation above the existing building, that would have views over Winchester. A new service core...
Evelyn Street Flats
The brief was to provide new residential accommodation to this former pub, located on a prominent triangular site in South East London. A previous scheme had been refused before we were appointed. The solution was for an additional floor of accommodation as well as conversion of the existing first floor of the original building. Set...
