Order and chaos

The best design responds to the realities of everyday, real, life. Nobody lives in a show home (no matter what the magazines say and those dreamy end shots on Grand Designs).

Sarah and John are a lovely couple with two children. They are very down to earth and unpretentious. Family life is busy but fun. As is often the case, we went through several iterations to find a design that provided the best balance for their budget and priorities. The final design joyfully connects the garden with the living space and provides flexibility for changing family life.
