Andrew and Rose came to us wanting a sustainable design team who had both an aesthetic sensibility and environmental values and ready to create something simple, beautiful and unique. They didn't want a bigger house. They wanted their existing footprint to work better: more light, a more logical layout, a low-maintenance interior that would be easy to live in and easy to keep organised, and a home built to perform for decades to come and carry them into their next stage of life.
“It exceeded our expectations; we love both the functionality and overall aesthetics of our home. The layout works much better. Opening up the space makes it feel more sociable; we are now proud to entertain. There is a lot more natural light. The choice of furnishings complements the overall design. We would never have made such brave choices!”
