Open-Plan Living, Kitchen & Snug — Shelford, Cambridge Residence

As part of a full-house renovation in Shelford, Cambridge, this open-plan living, kitchen, and snug space was reconfigured through a complete structural transformation — including demolition, extension, and coordinated design development. Working alongside the architect and structural engineer, the project was shaped from early planning stages through to final interior detailing, establishing a clear, cohesive framework for modern living.

Part of a full-house renovation, this open-plan space required clarity, cohesion, and a balanced connection between living, cooking, and quieter retreat areas.

Through considered spatial planning and material direction, the design creates a seamless flow — allowing each zone to function independently while remaining visually and emotionally connected.

Connection is a design material — shaping how a home breathes, moves, and gathers.

Warmth. Flow. Texture.
