Featured Projects
Sustainble Designs: Low Impact, Low Carbon, Low Energy
Barn Conversion
A Grade II listed barn in Kent was sensitively converted into a sustainable, energy-efficient family home. Guided by a heritage-led design approach, the scheme successfully balanced conservation, flood resilience, and modern living requirements while preserving the barn’s unique architectural character.
Whole House Refurbishment
This whole-house refurbishment seamlessly paired intelligent spatial reconfiguration with high-performance eco-upgrades. The design completely transformed the living spaces while maximising natural light and connection to the garden. Committed to a low-energy future, the project drastically improved the home’s thermal envelope with replacement glazing, underfloor heating, and solar technology to deliver a beautiful, low-impact modern home.
Community Cafe
A Grade II listed building dating from around 1450, located within a Conservation Area and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, was revitalised following a period of neglect and disuse. The scheme transformed the former antiques shop into a café while creating a self-contained flat above and a separate three-storey dwelling, securing a sustainable new future for this historic property.
What our customers are saying
Barn Conversion
Yalding
Mark’s understanding of heritage buildings was exceptional. One of the aspects we love the most was the emphasis placed on sustainability. Despite living in a building that dates back over 400 years, my energy bills remain remarkably low, and it is immensely satisfying to know that the barn’s carbon footprint is a fraction of my previous house.
Extension
Frant
The designs and advice received from Mark has always been of a very high quality and through his guidance we have never had a planning application refused, despite listed building restrictions.
Community Cafe
Rotherfield
The range of ideas he came up with amazed us because he could see possibilities where we only saw problems. A major stumbling block was that our original idea for splitting the property was disallowed by the Conservation Officer as it resulted in a flying freehold. At that point we were ready to give up but Mark came up with a range of creative solutions which ultimately resulted in an outcome way beyond our original vision.
New Dwelling
Crowborough
Tangent Space took me through the pitfalls of planning, building regulations and Local authority trip wires and I came out the other end SANE! No small result and it is a tribute to their technical knowledge and care. Mark was often to be seen on site with the contractors and even picking up a shovel when needed!
