Subtle Finish

02-04-2019 By Tim Scrace

Hidden under a suburban disguise, this recent loft conversion offers more than first meets the eye.  A sensitive design picks up on both direct and more subtle contextual references.

The house sits on the site of an old brickworks and next to historic roads and pathways.  Taking inspiration from these elements, Scrace Architects were able to develop an architectural language that grounded the design to its setting.

With each of our designs, we look to find something special that makes your project unique.  Referencing urban connections physically in this design helps to define place. This, coupled with the use of sustainable and local materials, gives a natural warmth and soul to what would otherwise be a regular loft conversion.

Where do you live? What is unique about your home or locality? Get in touch to find out how our designs make your project special info@scracearchitects.co.uk.
