Holy Trinity Church re-dedicated as Hull Minster

We were delighted to attend the ceremony on Saturday at which the Archbishop of York Bestowed Minister status on Holy Trinity Church in Hull.
This honour was in recognition of the church’s inspiring regeneration, physically and spiritually, and the exciting progress of the church’s £4.5m development project.
Phase 1 of the work to reorder the public square and churchyard has been completed and we are now working on Phase 2 which includes reordering of the Nave to provide a flexible space with new underfloor heating as well as improvements to service accommodation at the east end. Further phases will provide a new café and better toilet facilities.

Update: High Street Hebden Bridge

We are proud to be working with Calder Valley Community Land Trust in Hebden Bridge to design new low-energy housing for affordable rent. This location was previously home to hundreds of local workers living in dense terraces of 3 and 4 storey houses on a steeply sloping site, typical to the topography of the Calder Valley. Delighted that CVCLT would like to reinstate housing in this location, and the old High Street. Our design optimises plan depth and orientation for passive solar benefit and the landscaping strategy will alleviate flood risk. We are designing low-impact, low-energy, affordable & beautiful homes!

Princess Buildings – we build what we draw

The scaffolding has been removed to the primary elevation on Princess Street, Halifax. The stonework is looking good and the weather’s a lot better than our original render!
