We hope you're staying comfortable and enjoying the heatwave we're having in the UK at the moment!

We're seeing a real demand for outdoor living and home leisure spaces right now.

With more people spending time at home, many want their property to offer the same experiences they might once have sought elsewhere, a home gym, a cinema room, or a social outdoor kitchen and swim spa they can enjoy all year round.

A good tip if you're considering a project like this: outdoor works can often be completed in the cooler months, so everything is ready and waiting the moment the warm weather arrives.

Let's have a chat and get you booked in for later this year, so when next summer rolls around, you'll already be prepared! 🌿

The enabling works are complete at Project Hillcrest and our team have officially started on site this week.

These photos show what we're working with now that the Sixtowns Waste team have stripped and cleared everything problematic from site β€” back to brick and ready to go!

It's definitely not the most glamorous stage of a renovation, but a well-prepared site at the start means fewer nasty surprises, unnecessary delays, and no specialists being called in mid-build. So it's important!

We've written about this in more detail over on our journal. Worth a read if you're planning a renovation or extension soon ↓

It was great to go along to Loughborough University's degree show last week to support our work experience student from last year, Laura, and see her final year submission in person. What a brilliant portfolio of work she has created β€” thoughtful, creative, and beautifully presented. We're really pleased to have her back in the studio this summer. πŸ‘πŸΌπŸŽ“

From one landscaping project to another...

This time, we're over at Project Wi******er in Newcastle-under-Lyme, where a major milestone has been reached.

The garden room has been delivered and installed on site by Tiger Modular, and it's looking super sleek!

The prefab structure, clad in dark grey boarding with anthracite framed glazing, has been designed to house a home office, gym, and sauna.

With the outbuilding now in place, our attention has turned to the final landscaping and finishing touches – porcelain patio, fresh turf, planting, and a new gate.

PROJECT COMPLETE | LANDSCAPING DESIGN & BUILD
⚲ Doval Gardens, Staffordshire

After five days on-site with Biba's Landscaping, the transformation is complete, and our clients couldn't be happier with their new outdoor space.

Here's what we delivered:
β€’ Full landscape redesign with 3D render concepts and site visit
β€’ Natural stone paving with contrasting dark border detail
β€’ Lawn installation

Really proud of this one, and of everyone who worked on it.

We have a few landscaping spots remaining for this year. If you're thinking about transforming your outdoor space, now is a great time to get in touch.

Day 5 at Doval Gardens, and what a difference a day can make!

We started the morning with bare soil and ended the day with a lush, freshly laid lawn. 🌱

Before the turf went down, the topsoil was prepared and levelled to give it the best possible start.

The timing couldn't have been better really, the mix of rain and sunny spells we've had is close to ideal conditions for new turf. Rain keeps it moist and helps it root without stress, while the sunny spells give it the light it needs to establish.

Final photos coming on Monday.

We are officially about to kick off on site at Project Hillcrest in the Staffordshire countryside next week.

Before our team can begin construction works for the rear extension, side extension, and front porch, we first had to bring in the team at Sixtowns Waste to carry out enabling works.

That means a full back to brick strip out, conservatory removal, and asbestos removal. Creating a clean, safe, and well-prepared site with no nasty surprises.

That's all completed now, so we'll be setting out and excavating the foundations early next week.

A huge thank you to Ben and the Sixtowns Waste team for getting the site ready for us.

Things are moving fast on site at Doval Gardens, and we're starting to see the material selection come to life in detail.

We've gone for Stonevalley's:
βšͺ Light cream porcelain paving for the patio
⚫ Anthracite plank picture frame edging to border

Most people might not even notice the darker edging when the garden is complete, but it's one of those subtle architectural details that ties everything together and gives the space a more finished, intentional feel.

This is the benefit of having architectural input on your landscaping project. The details are considered at the design stage, not decided on the day.

Great progress continuing at Doval Gardens, Staffordshire. 🌿

With the space cleared and levelled, the team headed over to Stoke-on-Trent to collect the patio materials from Stonevalley.

We've gone for a light cream porcelain stone laid in a clean grid pattern, with a dark slim-line stone edging to frame and define each zone.

You can really start to see the layout taking shape now, with the tiered levels, the steps, and the different areas of the garden all coming together beautifully.

We had the pleasure of welcoming Viktoria, an architecture student from Loughborough University, to the team last week for a work experience placement. πŸŽ“

She jumped straight into a live residential project in Yorkshire, bringing fresh ideas and a brilliant design eye to the brief. She also put her stamp on some of our internal documents and processes that will make a real difference to how we present our work to clients going forward.

It was a genuine pleasure having her energy and talent around the office, and we wish her every success with the rest of her studies.

A huge thank you to Vika for her hard work, enthusiasm, and positivity throughout the week. ✨
