03 — The idea

Every buildingstarts witha line.

Section A–ASketch 004 · 1:200

Before a material is chosen or a wall is set, there is a single line describing where the ground ends and living begins. Everything that follows is an argument with that line.

10 — Studio

We buildfor thelong term.

Architecture should age well, feel natural, and become part of its place. We design and build in the same studio so nothing is lost between the drawing and the wall.

01

Less, but better

Fewer moves, held longer. We remove until only the necessary remains standing.

Less, but better
02

Materials with memory

Stone, oak and bronze that record use rather than resist it.

Materials with memory
03

Space with purpose

Every room earns its square metres — in light, in air, in use.

Space with purpose

11 — Inquiry

Have a placein mind?

We take on a small number of projects each year — new residences, restorations and interiors. Tell us about the site and we will tell you honestly what it wants to be.
