Our mixed-use, new build project located in Leyton, London is our latest project to receive planning, with consent granted in January.

The site located on a prominent corner, split into two halves (Site A and Site B) via the overground railway viaduct opposite Midland Road Overground Station. It was aquired with a consented planning scheme containing 25 residential units and 2 commercial units.
Following negotiations with neighbouring property owners, the client was able to secure additional land to the corner of site B (Coopers Lane & High Road) - this provided the opportunity to return to planning with a larger scheme.
The current scheme contains 48 residential units and 2 commercial units. Site A remains unchanged while Site B was redesigned to take advantage of a larger site and urban streetscape.
Care has been taken to retain the original planning application’s materiality and fenestration style.

We look forward to seeing it's construction!

Another great Christmas do with @merretthoumollerarchitects !! This year our walk started off at Peter Barbers ‘kiln place’ in Gospel Oak and continued on through some examples of post-war, modernist architecture, then up to Parliament hill for sunset, mince pies and sherry 🤶 Finally we headed down to Hampstead to enjoy a couple of cozy pubs and some good food. Thank you all for such a lovely day 🎄🥂

Over lockdown our director Tom designed and self-built (with the help of his family) a shed/office/studio in place of the existing outbuilding at the bottom of his garden. Here is a series of photos showing progression of the build. #selfbuild #structuralinsulatedpanels #metalcladding #studio #architecture #microarchitecture #sips

We have recently received planning permission for a residential extension in Uxbridge Town Centre.
The project consists of 8 self-contained, 2 bed apartments, housed within a roof extension that stretches across a 1930's terrace of commercial and residential units.
The design was developed to have a subservient impact upon both the host building and surrounding context. Working within the existing fabric, taking advantage of the existing circulation cores, and introducing a lightweight structure, allows the host building to maintain business as usual.

Planning granted in Feb 2022 for our scheme restoring and updating two locally listed buildings located within The Cator Estate, Blackheath.

Designed by the Edwardian architect Sir Aston Webb, the English Vernacular Renaissance ‘Gables’ and the Queen Anne Revival 'Windermere and stables’ were converted in the 1950’s to form a large nursing home, destroying the interiors and introducing damaging, utilitarian extensions to the rear elevation.
Ibbotsons were asked to return the houses to family dwellings. The removal of clutter and restoration of the rear facades, and the reversal of internal alterations presented an opportunity for 7 houses to be created:
House 1’Windermere’ stables with contemporary rear.
House 2 ‘Windermere’ restored.
House 3 ‘Billiard Room’ with contemporary infill.
Houses 4 – 7 Internal conversion of the ‘Gables’ with restored rear.

Here’s a few shots the internal circulation space at our project on Easton St.
To maximise office space we inserted a new circulation core into the the centre of the building, enabling us to remove the existing flanking escape stairs originally located at either end of the building.
