The Granary
Lanreath, Cornwall
Located in a stunning valley just outside Lanreath, Cornwall this historic stone Granary building has fallen into a state of disrepair. We are excited to be restoring it to its former glory whilst adding two single-storey extensions in a contrasting, contemporary style.
Blackened timber cladding provides warmth against the cool existing slate walls, whilst extensive glazing will maximise views down the valley. Wherever possible, the character of the existing barn will be maintained and highlighted through the interior design of the new home.

We are excited to have completed our development of three family homes in Lyme Regis. The conversion of a sprawling postwar house into two units and a contemporary new build house set in the grounds of the original garden. The properties sit against a backdrop of mature trees on a hillside providing spectacular panoramic views along the Jurassic Coast.
The white render of the two converted properties is offset by the warm Siberian larch timber clad new home. The angular form of the new build property offers 1st floor open plan living with a dynamic plywood lined ceiling and expansive terrace.

Darwin
Shaldon, Devon
We are excited to begin construction on this new-build house overlooking the Teign Estuary in Devon.
Our clients bought the site, which included foundations built for an earlier project that was subsequently abandoned. They challenged us to create their dream home; to ignore the previous design and make the most of the site, but incorporate as much as possible what had been already built.
The entrance to the house is approach via a walled courtyard which disguises the ground floor of the house, hidden behind it. A full height glazed lobby is set in a reflection pool. The walls of the house are clad in a warm palette of natural stone and corten-steel, offsetting the white cement board clad first floor which sits perpendicular over the entrance lobby to make the most of views towards the river estuary.
We look forward to sharing more photos when works have begun.

Masons Hill
Bromley, London
Located on a busy street corner in Bromley, South East London. The new five storey apartment block is made up of 29 one and two bed units with a large retail space at ground floor.
Each apartment has large dual aspect open plan living spaces as well as private external balconies. The building itself features a stepped façade generating a rhythm along the long street elevation. The protruding bays are clad in red brick, to contrast with the white brick used to clad the majority of the building. The project is one of our first BIM projects, with every detail designed and co-ordinated entirely in Revit as seen in the 3D visualisation.

Works are just about to start on our latest new build home in Devon. It’s built on the foundations of a previous building, and designed around a landscaped stone-walled courtyard with reflection pool. The first floor floats above this, supported on a slender v-column, taking in views over the nearby estuary. #thisiswhatwedo #mortonscarr #architecture #newhomes

Landour
South Downs, Sussex
We are nearing completion of a new build house set in the South Downs National Park. Positioned on a sensitive hill top site, the house takes in stunning uninterrupted panoramic views from every direction, which can be enjoyed from setback roof terraces that catch the morning and evening light.
The five bedroom, four bathroom house has replaced a single storey bungalow. We have clad the house in traditional flint in keeping with the surrounding villages, complimented by a standing seam metal roof that’s punctuated with dormers that provide light to the first floor bedrooms, as well as views over the surrounding fields and hills.

Lyme Regis, Dorset
After just over a year on site we're a matter of weeks from completing three family homes in Lyme Regis, Dorset.
A conversion of a postwar home into two homes and a new contemporary timber home set in the grounds of the original garden.
All three units have expansive terraces, allowing all residents a chance to make the most of the fabulous views over the stunning countryside and out along the Jurassic Coastline. The new home has an open plan living space at first floor, opening up onto a sheltered terrace.
We look forward to sharing completed photographs shortly.

Rosbeg
Dublin
With planning achieved in early 2018, we have spent the past 12 months preparing for work to start on this bespoke new build house on Howth Head, Dublin.
Set into the hillside the house has been designed to take full advantage of spectacular panoramic views over the Dublin Bay and beyond to the Irish Sea.
A combination of floor to ceiling windows and a carefully selected palette of materials unites the house seamlessly with this beautiful landscape.
We look forward to following the progress on site once work begins in late spring, with an anticipated completion in 2020

Heathervale House
Tunbridge Wells
After a year and a half on site Heathervale House is approaching the final stages of construction, and the original 1970’s office block has been transformed into a significantly larger, much more contemporary building.
With the scaffolding having recently been dropped the dark grey and bronze material palette has been revealed, as well as the beautiful louvre screens that surround the upper floors, giving the building a real presence in the wider area.
Coming up we’re excited to see the completion of the new entrance and circulation core which will complete the building.
