Aubert Road
We have just started looking at this new residential rear extension project with Upstairs Architects. The aim of the proposals is to improve the quality of the layout and improve daylight to the lower ground floor. It will involve a challenging amount of removal of ground floor structure to open up the layout. This is what it looks like at the moment.
Church Grove Project
This is an innovative approach to Community-Led Housing. The project will provide 33 new sustainable, customised, high quality homes that are permanently affordable and partly self-built in order to reduce construction costs. It will also design in opportunities for training in construction for self-builders as well as apprentices and volunteers from the wider community. The project will contain a range of houses and flats of different tenures, sizes and levels of self-build in order to create a truly mixed community made up of people from diverse backgrounds in the local area. The client, Rural Urban Synthesis Trust has given the design team the go ahead to proceed with the RIBA stage 4 detailed design. There are plenty of engineering challenges to overcome starting with a contaminated brownfield site on a floodplain. The superstructure will be designed with a fabric first approach by experienced Passivhaus designers Architype .
Barn at Jankes Farm
We are working with Lynch Architects on this exciting project to convert an existing grade II listed Essex threshing barn built in the early 1700s into a residence. A number of detailed surveys have been carried out and we have put together repair and strengthening proposals based on this information. Further work needs to be done to finalise the planning and we are looking forward to seeing the conservation carpentry work beginning later in the year.
Voss Street
This interesting micro dwelling on a very small site for client and architect MOCT studios (www.moctstudio.com) is coming out of the ground now. It has had plenty of structural challenges from trying to get piles into a very constrained site to providing stability with a full storey and a half-glazed structure free frontage.
Eaton Square
This project is now entering the procurement phase as the detailed design nears completion. The project consists of the creation of a new basement and a new rear closet wing to a grade II star listed mid terrace early nineteenth century townhouse in Eaton Square.

Rodrigues Associates are now in the detailed design stage for this prestigious project to provide a combined home for all the current museum, library and education functions on the site.
