PAST PROJECTS
Wood, so good it grows on trees
OXFORD STUDENT ACCOMODATION
A 5 storey student block in historic Oxford built with an Austrian timber frame system. The construction is incredibly fast and suits tight site conditions.
KENT, SURVEY AND EXPERT REPORT
Following construction of timber frame houses by others for a national house builder the residents complained of squeaking floors which were investigated and the likely defect in the design highlighted for remediation.
UTC INTERNAL MEZZANINE
A fantastic looking project which was bought to life following advice on new LVL timber available. The design was then developed further by the architect with a timber supplier.

BRIGHTON STUDENT BLOCK
This student block sat over a retail space with only a few columns. The solution needed a hybrid structure, utilising steel beams and the timber to provide the space.
