Conceptualisation and Design
Our design phase is meticulously planned to balance the clients' vision with the architectural integrity of the barn. We use detailed sketches and 3D models to help visualise the potential transformations while staying true to the original aesthetic.
Planning and Permissions
We navigate the complexities of planning permissions, especially for listed and heritage buildings, ensuring all renovations meet local and national standards without compromising the barn's historical value.
Ecological and Environmental Considerations
Each project undergoes thorough ecological assessments to ensure our developments are environmentally friendly and sustainable. This includes choosing materials and methods that minimise environmental impact.
Construction and Craftsmanship
Our team comprises expert builders and skilled tradespeople who specialise in both traditional techniques and modern construction methods. This blend ensures that the structural integrity and aesthetic of the barn are maintained while upgrading to modern standards.
Innovative Energy Solutions
We integrate state-of-the-art, energy-efficient technologies like solar panels and ground- source heat pumps, which are planned from the outset to ensure seamless integration. This early integration strategy is crucial for maintaining the visual and structural integrity of the barn while providing modern comfort and efficiency.
