Working amongst the trees

What a year 2020 turned out to be. Running a husband and wife practice has been the norm for us for the last 7 years, add in the constraints of a global pandemic, 6 months with a 7 and 9 year old around and building a new studio… and life gets a little more interesting! Existing works carried on, new projects kept coming in and we all learned how to keep things moving and carry on, actually in many ways with a better work life balance than before.

​The best thing to come out of this time has been the creation of this extraordinarily beautiful new work space built by a couple of talented, experienced craftsmen; the brilliant Steve Bevan who single-handed built the structure and Chris Westermark who made the inside and outside a truly beautiful place to spend our working day (and sometimes evening).

Every design detail was worked through collaboratively, trying out ideas as almost prototypes for future raum projects. We're already adding to it, re-landscaping the garden and will no doubt continue change a few bits over time but what a lockdown project it has been!

Now to 2021, we look forward to completing those projects on site for clients to move into and enjoy, while we start the process afresh with new ones.

​Here's to a new year working amongst the trees!
