Work in Progress: An image from an elevational study for a development of 23 affordable homes for @brickbybrickldn The study looks at how to minimise overlooking to adjacent homes whilst providing a sense of natural surveillance over shared green spaces. The arches provide covered entrance to the ground floor homes, the common stairs and the rear of the site whilst hit-and-miss brickwork provides tempered daylight through to the walkways. #housing #newhousing #brick #hayhurstandco #arch #brickworkarch

Result…! We are thrilled that Holly Crosbie from our team has just passed her RIBA Part 3 Exams with Distinction from @bartlettarchucl Holly joined Hayhurst and Co as a Part 1 student in 2012 and returned after Part 2 studies. She is shown here in our recently completed ‘A House in Hackney’: a project she led from beginning to end. Well done Holly…! #part3 #ahouseinhackney #housextension

On the market: Snug House went on the market with @themodernhouse today. In 2017, we completed the remodelling and extension of this garden flat in Muswell Hill to create a series of split-level living spaces leading out to the garden. Turning a 2-bed flat into a 3-bed family home. #snughouse #houseforsale #themodernhouse #splitlevelhouse #houseextension

We are thrilled that our STEM Activity Lab at Torriano Primary School is one of 12 projects that have been shortlisted for the @ribajournal MacEwen Award. Less aesthetics, more ethics, the award recognises ‘architecture for the common good’. The winner will be announced soon. #macewenaward #ribajournal #torrianoprimaryschool #stemlab #learningspace #schooldesign

Work in progress: Yesterday we presented the residential projects we are working on for @brickbybrickldn in the form of a 3 minute petcha kucha. Great to share challenges and opportunities of working in small sites with the other excellent architect teams.

2020 Projects: We are excited to be finalising the design for a pair of homes on a back-land site in Croydon, London. The green glazed ceramic tiled roof is intended to enhance the woodland character of site, nestled amongst mature trees. The project is due to start on site in spring. #newproject #projectsfor2020 #comingsoon…

2020 Projects: This week we are showcasing projects we are excited to be working on in 2020. We are currently developing ideas for a new library, community centre and nursery alongside improved public spaces and new housing for a local authority in south london.
