PROJECT TYPES

From Traditional Stone to Renewable Integration

From Traditional Stone to Renewable Integration

My architectural experience spans a wide range of building types, including traditional stone and listed buildings, modern masonry construction, timber-framed homes, and Dorran concrete houses. This breadth of knowledge provides a strong understanding of the detailing, materials, and building physics required to create structures that perform exceptionally well.

While much of my work involves new homes and residential developments, I am equally at home working on extensions, alterations, and refurbishment projects incorporating the latest renewable technologies. I am also deeply committed to supporting community initiatives, having worked on projects that improve local accessibility, including the provision of Changing Places Toilets within community buildings.
