As Found Studio is an architectural practice focused on homes and the way we live in them.

We work with homes, from small alterations and renovations to extensions, retrofit and larger transformations. We believe in starting with what’s already there, understanding what works, what could work harder and what genuinely needs to change.

Our approach is resourceful, considered and thoughtful. We respect the character of existing buildings and look for ways to adapt and add to them with care. Our work can be modest or more transformative, depending on what you and your home need.

We don’t think bigger is always better. Sometimes the answer is more space; sometimes it’s making better use of the space you already have. That might mean finding new ways to bring in natural light, improving the flow and connection between spaces, or upgrading the existing fabric to create a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.

We care about materials, craft and the everyday details that make a home feel good to live in and work well for the people who live there. Sustainability is part of that thinking rather than something added at the end. We look for opportunities to retain and reuse what we can, improve the existing fabric and reduce the energy a home needs.

As a small practice, working together is genuinely personal. You’ll work directly with our founder throughout, from our first conversation to seeing your home take shape. We keep the conversation going at every stage. We listen, answer questions and keep you informed, giving you the space to be as involved in the process as you want to be.

Work with what you have. Add what you need.
