Court House

Court House is a carefully considered extension and full renovation of an Edwardian home in East Devon. This single-storey wraparound addition transforms the property’s layout and usability—enhancing spatial flow, daylight access, and the connection to its established garden setting.

Blending old and new, the project reimagines the original house through sensitive internal reordering and material-led design. The result is a warm, functional family home that honours its heritage while supporting modern living.
