Work in progress: Study images for works to a house and garden studio in the de Beauvoir conservation area. Our interventions are seen as a series of timber sculptures within a long and leafy back garden. The project features a double height internal courtyard, picture windows looking onto the garden and a bespoke terrazzo floor. #hayhurstandco #debeauvoir #house #gardenstudio #terrazzo #courtyard

Hayes Primary School: The expansion of Hayes Primary School provides an exciting and vibrant new extension to a tired and outdated school building; an extension that flickers and glimmers with the reflection of the trees providing a renewed energy to a building at the heart of its community. #flashbackfriday photo credit @kilianosullivan // Winner of an RIBA National Award 2013, NLA Best Education Building 2013, NLA Best Overall Building 2013 #hayhurstandco #hayesprimaryschool #ribanationalaward #nla #primaryschool
Recently completed: Acorns Nursery at Netley Primary School, is a single-storey nursery building for 20, 2-year-olds. The site sits between a bold new school building completed in 2014 and a triple-decker, Victorian Board School – the ‘King’ and ‘Queen’ of the site. Acorns is conceived as the cheeky little ‘Jack’: a single-storey building that mimics its larger neighbours with its flush pointed red-brick, diamond-shaped mirror tiles externally and acoustic shaped tiles internally. The frog-eye window scoops light into the depth of the plan behind the shadow of the neighbouring buildings and helps provide views out from within. hayhurstandco #netleyprimaryschool #acornsnursery #euston #nursery #jack
Burnt House: Set amongst the mature rear gardens of the Maida Vale Conservation Area, this small rear extension transforms a basement flat into a light-filled family home that opens out onto its rear garden.
Charred larch external timber cladding and white oil finishes provide a contrasting series of linings to the extension and increases the reflection of natural light within the home. The use of timber in this way is seen as a sustainable finish that unobtrusively sets the new extension within its landscape and provides a contemporary reference to the traditional conservatory.
