Residential architecture by Stillform

Courtyard House concept study

Thoughtful architecture.
Useful, lasting spaces.

We begin with the place and the people who will use it. The existing building, the light through the day, the small routines that make a house a home.

From a new home to a careful extension, our work brings space, materials and everyday life into a clear arrangement.

New homes

Courtyard House

A private garden draws light and greenery into the rooms around it.

Adaptations

Lightwell Extension

A simple addition gives an existing home more room to breathe.

Good places begin with good questions.

Understanding the place

The brief, the site and the existing building give us our starting point. We look at possibilities and constraints together.

Designing the everyday

Rooms, thresholds, daylight and storage. The useful details shape how a home feels and how it works.

Getting the details right

We develop the drawings and coordinate specialist input, with a service scope agreed for each project.

Planning a project?

Can you work with an existing home?

The concept includes extensions and adaptations. Share photographs, a rough location and what you want to change.

Do I need planning permission?

Requirements depend on the site and proposal. Any real project needs a project-specific assessment with the relevant local authority and professional team.

When should I get in touch?

Early discussions can help shape the brief before you commit to a design. A site address, wish list and rough budget are useful starting points.
