Found the right property?
Now discover what it could become.
Its potential may be very different from what you see today.
LOOK AGAIN.
The Property caught your eye.
The view.
The garden.
The position.
The character of the existing house.
But what else is there to see?
You were drawn to the view.
Where will you sit to experience it?
The sun isn't where you'd like it.
How could the house bring light where you need it?
The site slopes
What if the slope gives the house its character?
Life gets busy
How could arriving home feel like an escape?
The obvious answer isn't always the best one.
A four-bedroom house tells you how many people can stay there.
It doesn't tell you how they might live.
That's where architecture begins.
Our work looks beyond the obvious constraints to understand the property, its context and the possibilities it could offer.
OUR PROCESS
01 LOOK
Understand the opportunity.
02 EXPLORE
Test what it could become.
03 DEFINE
Establish a direction.
We investigate the site, sunlight, views, context and existing conditions.
What is the property actually giving us?
We explore the opportunities revealed by the site and develop an initial vision.
What could happen here?
We bring together the opportunities, constraints and your aspirations to define a clear direction for the project.
What should it become?
SEE THE POTENTIAL
Before the first drawing, there is a more important question:
What is this property asking us to consider?
Our initial work brings together the site, its opportunities and constraint, and your aspirations to establish a clear direction for the project.
Briefing & Feasibility
