Took a trip out to E17 to visit some special people living in two of my early projects in the same road. The Timber Fin House and the Black Ridge House. Both projects still give the owners so much joy today.

What I loved about seeing both is how they've both evolved over the 5-10 years since they were built, how they have adapted to growing children and families now working from home full time since the pandemic.

Making architecture to serve people's lives, to give them a framework to live their best lives is one of the most rewarding things about being an architect. While homes are such tangible things, the feelings and emotions they evoke are patently visceral too.

Project architect Andy Taberner exploring structur

Project architect Andy Taberner exploring structure versus surface in these images of the living room roof of our 400 year Big Oak Tree House.

We are working on another almost rural site, surrounded by trees and with a river flowing through the site. The flow of folded planes create wonderful vistas from the sunken living room space.

The form and massing of the extension have been designed to frame the 400-year-old Oak Tree that sits at the bottom of the garden.

These images by the project team Neil, Andy Taberner and Mattie Freeman show the concept of a rhythmic roof of oak opening up views towards the landscape.

We will bring you more info as this one develops.

The oriel window in our Tree View House in North London communes directly with nature. It's a perfect perch to sit next to the beautiful Hawthorn trees along the site boundary.

We fitted reading lights into the walnut panelling around the surrounding frame of the window seat.

One of the many magical spaces brought to life by activating nature's gifts along the boundaries of the site.

It was an extremely busy week for project architec

It was an extremely busy week for project architect Andrew Taberner. He submitted our project in Tonbridge for planning and handed over our project for a Grade II listed Georgian House in Canonbury.

Here is a sneak preview...

We will bring you some professional photos of this project later in the year once our clients have settled in and unpacked.

It's been a few years in the making and the result of some complex wrangling with Islington Council but at the end of the day we got permission for everything we wanted to do.

To top it off, we had our long time collaborators Sygnet Style complete this project to an incredibly high standard for us. Our clients couldn't be happier.

Planning submitted for a project in Tonbridge.

Our client approached us asking to help reorganise and extend their existing property. The property, constructed in the early 1990’s, suffers from a disconnected sequence of spaces throughout the ground floor. NDA have reorganised these to put the kitchen at the heart of the plan and introduce a single storey pavilion extension. The pavilion extension contains a living and dining space, which connects to the kitchen through a generous opening but more importantly it shifts the focus of the plan to create a courtyard enclosed on three sides.

A stripped back palette of natural materials has been selected including Petersen Kolumba Bricks, Concrete Flooring and Western Red Cedar lining for the ceiling.

Great work by the team at NDA – Andrew Taberner and Kenneth Mason.

Exploring a hierarchy of door openings in our Petersen House in Hammersmith. The kitchen door is large, almost 4m high on a pivot opening. The sliders are small and slim with a 22mm thick sight line which is pretty much the smallest you can go and still retain good thermal performance.

Staying cool. We put a hammock in the window of our Tree View House so you can chill out by the window overlooking the garden. Probably one of the most relaxing places. The scent of the tatami mats on the floor, set into bamboo panels also helps.

We're nearly at the finish line of our Wiggly Wall

We're nearly at the finish line of our Wiggly Wall House in Canonbury Park North. It's a substantial refurbishment of a Grade II listed house in in a Conservation area in Canonbury (a few minutes from our studio)

Project architect Andrew Taberner is literally watching paint dry now!

Still a few exciting surprises in store when they install our completely black handpainted kitchen and bespoke hand blown glass pendants, plus a few others. This project really expresses the character of our quite remarkable clients and we can't wait to hand it over to them this summer.

We pushed the Hygge on the interiors in our Danish Mews House in Hyde Park.

We are delighted to announce that our Danish Mews House has been shortlisted in the Best Interior Design: Individual Home (more than £500,000) for the British Home Awards.

Faced with a site hemmed in on 3 sides and only one principle elevation we pushed to make the interior as beautiful as possible.

Everything except the Martin Moore kitchen is Danish. Including our client!

The power of surface texture and light. Our staircase at home is painted in a Dulux Silk RAL 9010, the opposite wall is painted in Farrow and Ball Setting Plaster no 231. As the light shifts the colours blend in the staircase and takes on a dusty faded colour.

Reminds me sometimes on the sunsets I saw in Petra (one of my favourite places). I know it's just a staircase in a terrace house in Stoke Newington but sometimes it feels like something else. Can't quite explain it but it is quite magical.

Some work in progress pics of our new studio. Two weeks to go before the fit out is complete but we're operational thanks to our hard working studio manager, Sarah who managed the transition for us.

A sad farewell to our friends at Cullinan Studio where we were based for almost the entire duration of our practice.

It's great having our own space and we're looking forward to sharing some professional photos with you when it's finished.

We're now based at @canonburyyardn1

Thanks to project architect James Barker for these photos and to project architect Andrew Taberner for the design and detailing.

The property’s unique location next to All Saint

The property’s unique location next to All Saints Church influenced our proposal which seeks to re-connect and re-orientate the existing buildings to maximise views of the adjacent church whilst referencing church architecture with the interior’s sensitive use of timber. The up and over glazing allows a view of the spire.

Great work by the team at NDA - Andy Taberner and Mattie Freeman.

Our design team envisaged a dialogue between the three buildings and how materials and spaces informed one another.

When we were designing our Tree View House project

When we were designing our Tree View House project, our client said we should try avoid using plasterboard if we could.

We were happy to oblige. We conceived of the staircase element as a sculptural space entirely carved out or Lebanese Cedar. Everything is clad in timber and has a garden glow when washed with natural light.

It's hard to convey the special atmosphere this space has but Edmund Sumner's wonderful photography does an amazing job in showing the warmth of this special space. Staircases aren't just there for circulation, but to stimulate feelings, open views and are important spaces in themselves.

Recent ongoing work in Cambridge. This view shows our restoration plans for a derelict coach house. We're re-using most of the existing materials to retain the historic patina of the property and wrapping the permiter with a series of glazed screens to connect with the garden.

The material language of the exterior seeks to open up the facades to the garden and church views. Structural supports reflect the language of the existing stone arches and lintels. The idea is to add a new layer reflecting the heritage of the building but in a modern language.
