the colony concept.
collaborate.
innovate.
create.
like a colony, each part of the practice has its own strength.
from heritage and homes to commercial development, community projects and technical delivery. Every project draws together the mix it needs, so no two teams are quite the same.

built to last:
much of what we do involves buildings that already exist. we take pride in securing the long-term, sustainable future of places that matter, whether a listed farmhouse, a Victorian school or a much-loved community venue.
02
good architecture, reframed:
we don't think good architecture is about ego or expense. it's about understanding what a project needs and steering it through the challenges in its way: planning, budgets, constraints, people. working this way, your architect becomes a trusted development advisor, bringing the experience of many clients' projects to yours.
01
why it works:
our work moves between very different worlds. a listed house one week, a design and build housing scheme the next. That mix is deliberate. It makes our domestic work commercially savvy, and our commercial work aware of the people who will live in it. each part of the colony learns from the others.
the challenges we solve
every site brings its own set of challenges. here are some of the complex problems we've solved for our clients [scroll left-to-right].
