New Build

"A great building must begin with the unmeasurable, must go through measurable means when it is being designed and in the end, must be unmeasurable"

Louis Kahn

New build houses are now required to meet a plethora of Planning, sustainability, and evermore stringent building regulation criteria. Drawing lines from each of these, and creating a building where they all converge, in a beautifully functional space, is a challenge we enjoy meeting. Building your own home is, for most clients, a once in a life time opportunity and working with the right architect is key.

With 15 years’ experience in construction; an eye for design and detail and creating enjoyable light spaces; the expertise to listen to client requirements and translate them into a home that you have designed are skills that we can offer. We will guide you through the planning application through to the building process from start to finish. Let us take the stress out of the process!

Our Design in a Day workshop was fun, productive and a real pleasure. AWK listened to our brief and came up with a design that would not have occurred to us without her input.

Hames House

Our 'Design in a Day' experience was fantastic. They seemed to really get what we wanted to do. The final presentation helped us decide what we did and did not want to move forward with. We decided to continue with A:WK all the way through to finished construction drawings and now feel confident and well-armed moving into the actual build.

I really love the new kitchen and the space you designed. It is so light and welcoming but still works with the rest of the house. I hope you are as pleased with it as we are. We really enjoyed working with you on this project and would strongly recommend your practice to other people.
Thank you so much for the wine as well. We shall certainly raise a glass to you and your team.

Architecture:WK's Design in a Day workshop was a great opportunity to share exciting & practical ideas on how to maximise the space & light. AWK gave a high quality presentation of the design, which they have since developed into more detailed drawings & submitted successfully through planning. Looking forward to the next stages!

The hand painted kitchen was designed to be in the heart of the house, with an island unit where the family tend to gather for breakfast, coffee mornings with friends and after work meal time conversations.

We are so glad we found AWK. We are delighted with the stunning design but even more so with the exemplary service provided by Sam, Tuc and the rest of the team. It would be hard to find a more technically proficient practice and even harder to find a more customer friendly team.

Sam of A:WK spent time familiarising herself with the surrounding area and the site of our proposed project, before talking with us at length, and listening attentively to get a feel for our hopes and requirements. She was positive and enthusiastic, while pointing out some practical constraints and possibilities that non-professionals would not be aware of. I love my new home and am delighted to have gone through the building process with A:WK by my side.
