Thoughtful design,
made together.

Design Ethos

Our design approach is rooted in the belief that spaces should enhance how people feel and perform. We strive to create environments that are calm, balanced and uplifting. Spaces with a sense of clarity and purpose. Whether designing a home, workplace, or interior fit-out, our focus is on simplicity and comfort: clean lines, natural light and a lack of visual clutter that allows people to breathe and think clearly.

At home, we want people to feel they can reset and to live well and find calm. In the workplace, that same philosophy applies: we aim to design spaces that support wellbeing and enable people to perform at their best. Through careful attention to light, proportion, and materiality, we create environments that are both beautiful and functional. Timeless spaces that feel good to be in.

Our Approach to Sustainability

Sustainability is embedded in the way we think and design. We believe the most responsible form of building is often refurbishment, improving what already exists rather than starting again. There is unnecessary waste in demolition, and we see real value in retaining the character, history and embodied energy of existing structures. For us, the challenge of transforming and enhancing a building is far more rewarding than beginning with a blank sheet of paper.

In every project, we aim to design and specify mindfully. We look for opportunities to improve energy efficiency through better insulation, lighting and building systems. We select materials and products with longevity, low environmental impact and responsible sourcing in mind. By working with what’s already there and refining it with care, we create spaces that not only feel better but perform better.

Working With Us

We believe that working with an architect should be as enjoyable as it is rewarding. The process should leave clients feeling both confident in the result and relaxed throughout the journey. You come with ideas and expectations and it’s our role to listen carefully, interpret your vision and guide you toward the best possible outcome.

We see our role as collaborative and advisory helping clients understand what will work and what might not, so the final result exceeds expectations. The goal is for the design process to be engaging and reassuring, leaving clients feeling heard, understood and delighted with the finished space.

We are not showy architects with an agenda of self-promotion. Our aim is always to do our best for the client, the stakeholders and the environment. Every decision we make is informed by this ethos, ensuring the design is thoughtful, responsible and focused on delivering long-lasting value.

Our Approach to Work and our Team 

At the heart of the practice are Lizzie and Sophie, who share a clear set of values and a belief that the best design comes from close collaboration. We’ve chosen to keep the studio intentionally small so that every project benefits from our direct involvement and creative focus. This allows us to stay agile, responsive and fully committed to delivering thoughtful, well-resolved design solutions.

We work collaboratively with a trusted network of like-minded professionals of architects, interior designers, furniture specialists and project managers who enable us to build a bespoke team for each project. This flexible structure means we can scale to suit the scope and complexity of the work while maintaining the personal service and design integrity of a smaller studio. It’s an approach that combines the creativity and care of a boutique practice with the capability and confidence of a larger one, offering our clients intelligent design and exceptional value.
