Six designs.
One ladder.

Not a showroom of things you can't afford. A range, drawn deliberately across the market, the smallest is a two bedroom you can build in three stages, the largest holds three generations around a courtyard.

Every one is drawn for a real plot size and carries a real budget band. All six can be adapted to land you already own.

Then we draw
you a seventh.

These six exist because they cover the briefs we are asked for most often. They are a starting point, not a catalogue. Bespoke work starts the same way, with your plot, your brief and a conversation.
