Our latest build has provided a home gym for a fitness enthusiast and replaced a very old shed.  Sited on a sloping site, the building is clad in long lasting cedar with double glazed, argon filled windows and doors.  As well as providing power to the gym for the exercise equipment, we also extended the Sky cable to provide entertainment whilst working out.  The gym incorporates our usual underfloor heating and plasterboard finish.  Not the greatest photo but weather has been so poor recently; better to come in the Spring!

A budding playwright wanted a small but comfortable den in which to write but there was only one place it could fit in this London garden.  So, we designed a long thin building with most of the glazing and door on the front wall to give views back to the house and over the garden.  Clad in durable cedar, the studio enhances the recently re-designed garden and provides a warm and secluded space in which to write.  It also looks a lot better than the shed that was there in the first place!
