SHOW:    All      Residential      Property Development  

We designed and achieved the necessary approvals for a new build property to replace an existing bungalow in Horfield, Bristol. Using the same footprint of the existing dwelling, WANA sought to add another level and create a contemporary family home. The shell was manufactured off site by a dedicated timber frame company and finished by the contractor on site. The combination of timber cladding and render create a stylish, completely unique home.

WANA designed and obtained the necessary permissions for a new build dwelling on this infill site to the rear of a busy arterial route into Central Bristol. The site, whilst generous, was hemmed in by other gardens and dwellings and therefore we had to box clever in regards to outlook and fenestration - facing most of the views and glazing to ample rear garden which is a green haven in this urban location. We then guided the client through the technical design and construction process on this self build project

WANA designed and obtained the necessary permissions for a full refurbishment of a flat, including loft conversion and terrace, in a Central Bristol Conservation Area. The client came to us in need of inspiration to rework his flat and maximise the unused roof space. We flipped the property upside down, with bedrooms downstairs and the main living area upstairs; so that views over Bristol’s iconic Harbour could be enjoyed from the living spaces - including a hidden terrace. 


WANA designed and obtained the necessary permissions for a single storey rear extension to replace an existing outrigger in Knowle, Bristol. Utilising the existing party wall structures, a timber framed structure was dropped in and finished in charred larch to provide a visually distinctive addition to the existing red brick dwelling. A large overhang on the flat roof provides solar shading and the rear fenestration slides to open the kitchen/diner space into a new sunken courtyard.

WANA designed and led on the redevelopment of this Victorian terraced property in Brislington, Bristol. Working within the constraints of the existing footprint, we opened up the floorplan by switching the fenestration. This simple move allowed for a flow from front to back door, with a visual line right through the property. The sliding window arrangement lets in extra light and allows for a new dining area. Stripping back the feature wall to the original brick added texture and creates a juxtaposition between the old and the new.
