Contemporary Design & Conservation Architects Chard and Ilminster
Vernacular and Evolution
South Somerset is defined by its warm Hamstone architecture and its transition from rolling hills to historic market towns. Our approach in Chard and Ilminster is centered on the sensitive evolution of this local vernacular. We understand the specific character of Somerset’s diverse building stock—from the grander, golden-hued townhouses of the 18th and 19th centuries to the robust, functional beauty of its rural barn conversions. By combining our knowledge of Historic Building Conservation with a crisp, contemporary design sensibility, we create architecture that respects the heritage of the West Country while providing high-performance spaces for modern use.

“The relationship between materials and their setting, creates a sense of belonging and grounds our buildings within their landscape. How these materials adjoin and sit alongside one another as well as how they appear against the backdrop of the landscape in which they are rooted, is of particular interest to how we operate as a practice.”
