02.12.2020
Our Lake Cabin project based in Braebourne, Kent has been featured in the architecture press including the Architects Journal.
The cabin is positioned on a lakes’ edge and has a cantilevered deck over the water.
The cabin is approached along a woodland trail. It is not accessible by vehicles.
The building has been designed as an exposed timber-framed structure. There are two full glazed elevations which angle out towards the lake and slide open giving views out across the lake and to the countryside beyond.
Externally the building is clad in a combination of rough sawn wide English oak plank cladding, and thin narrow-plained English oak cladding.
This is combined with a concrete datum line to the base of the building, which steps up to create a concrete bench and log store. The roof, and roof trims are clad in a patinated bronze finish to contrast the natural wood, which is to be left unfinished to tarnish and weather with the landscape.

The Street, Appledore Gains Planning Permission
14.09.2020
The Street is a collection of 3 and 4 bedroom contemporary houses to be built in Appledore, Kent.
The site consists of 5 x 3 bedroom social houses, which will be built to Passiv plus standards, along with 1 x 3 bed private dwelling, 2 x 4 bed pair of semi- detached houses and 4 x detached 4 bedroom houses.
The houses will all be heated and cooled using air source heat pumps.
Each property combines a vernacular material palette of fair faced bricks, render, dark stained timber cladding and zinc seamed roofs. The forms are influenced by traditional buildings within the adjacent conservation area yet detailed in a contemporary way.
Some of the larger properties have double height spaces with large high level glazed top light over the dining room areas and entrance hallways. Each property will be fitted with bespoke joinery, and locally sourced handmade kitchens.
The houses have been designed individually to suit the sloping site context and to maximise the views of the surrounding countryside.
The private houses all then have shared access and views over a communal nature area with a lake which will also be used as an attenuation pond. Pockets of landscaping have been designed to create the sense of smaller clusters of houses rather than a single large expanse of housing, as well as providing privacy.

Winchelsea Beachfront Development Completes
21.04.19
Our latest beachfront development has now completed. The office spent time checking out the finished three storey houses on a sunny and warm February morning at Winchelsea beach. Each dwelling has been built out of a timber and steel structure with Wienerberger bricks at ground level and clad with charred timber boards at first and second floors. The terraces provide outstanding views across the shingle beach.
We have recently submitted planning permission for a further three beach houses on the adjacent plot.
