Having grown up in the Suffolk countryside I have always loved English summers, and take real pleasure in feeling connected to my environment, I'll often sit in the shed at the bottom of the garden, dilapidated and rotting as it is, to read a book and watch the wildlife.
I have tried to reflect this in the small spaces I design. Through the use of patinated tin and rusty steel reminiscent of old agricultural buildings throughout Suffolk, by having the skylight which allows for a feeling of bright space, and by having a glazed gable end, which breaks down the separation of the building from the outside.
My buildings are designed to be fully functioning homes but can also be used as an annexe for one of your family, a functional secluded office, or simply as a comfortable and beautiful place to relax.
