The Polecat, Prestwood

 The Polecat Inn is a Grade 2 Listed public house in Prestwood, near Great Missenden. The new restaurant pavilion sits at the rear of the Inn and overlooks the rolling Chilterns landscape to the rear, while the Inn has been restored and relieved of an untidy group of recent extensions. This is an exercise in bringing together old and new in a clear a distinct relationship. The design uses an over-sailing roof,

The Royal Foresters Hotel, Ascot

This project brings back to life a Coaching Inn that had been closed for a number of years. We worked with Oakman Inns and their Architect Basil Smith to produce a quadrangle of buildings, knitting two new hotel wings into the existing buildings.

The ‘S’ shape deck floats above the river and seeks to exploit the site’s striking topography and views with the least intrusion from surrounding structure as possible. The contoured form highlights movement and the flow of routes, bringing the language of the park to meet

Rochdale Canal Bridge

Rochdale Canal Bridge

The Rochdale Canal Bridge is a footbridge linking three points over the Rochdale Canal in Ancoats, Manchester. The design won an open RIBA Competition and forms part of Urban Splash’s New Islington development.

The resulting structure, engineered by Michael Hadi Associates, places the backbone of the bridge above the

The building was awarded Millennium Product
