Our aim in the work is to illuminate opportunities inherent in each project – the physical, cultural and emotional context – which are unique in every design brief.
We are guided by a logical response but enjoy the unanticipated. Each project generates its own particulars; we avoid stylistic generators of design.
We look to the strength & rightness of durability, the beauty of life and how good design enhances it. Environmental design, green architecture and cost efficiency are our back-ground paradigm. We always incorporate sustainable design principals such as: low energy use, low embodied energy materials, low toxicity material usage & passive solar design. We love timber and recycled timber in particular.
Our work has been acknowledged through exhibition, awards, teaching & by being built & enjoyed.
We take special pride in our history of repeat business with our clients.
