Our founding director, Matthew Wood, also offers his insight into how to create the biggest difference in your house with the smallest of changes. If you want to learn how you can add an extension to your house in order to gain valuable extra space or learn Matthew's top tips then we highly recommend you read the full article!

Home Work - Design solutions for working from home

in

Growing numbers of us work not only from home, but from anywhere; job flexibility has become a key requirement for employers and workers alike. This, in turn, has created new challenges for architects and designers – many of whom themselves start out working from home – who are tackling demand head on with innovative solutions that allow clients to transform their spaces to suit a wide range of needs, from multifunctional studios to homes that seamlessly combine work and family life. 

Divided into five thematic sections, this book explores the exciting variety of ways that the workplace can be integrated into the domestic environment. From stand-alone multifunctional furniture to mobile room dividers and dynamic solutions that fold out or pop up to create new work areas, each design addresses the unique needs of the space, client and working practices for which it was required, and tackles new questions about the rapidly evolving relationship between work and domestic life in the 21st century. 

This essential and timely resource for homeworkers and practitioners offers fresh ideas for how to strike the perfect balance between living and working at home.

This book gave us the opportunity for us to showcase our split level designs (Mackeson Road and Essex Mews) that connect eating, living and working spaces through the use of dramatic voids.
