The materials we touch.

Close to hand

A building is encountered at different distances. From the street we read its mass and openings. Inside, a door edge, a sill and a worktop tell a smaller story. These are the parts that deserve careful attention.

Allowing things to age

Timber changes with use. Stone records small differences in light. A durable material does not need to remain untouched to stay beautiful, but it does need a detail that lets it do its job.

We prefer a short material palette used consistently. The aim is not a perfect photograph on the first day, but a room that remains good to live with.
