Joinery NEXT PROJECT
Two-Family House
Perched above the coastline, this award-winning home is shaped by its views. Our role was to design and produce the full suite of timber joinery, bringing warmth, quiet precision and a sense of grounded calm to a dramatic setting. The wood joinery, which often provides playful nooks and recesses, is effective and well executed. The Two Family House was awarded the Award RIBA South West and Wessex Award 2025.

Throughout the property, natural oak anchors the interior. The staircase, built with seamless detailing, sets the tone for the rest of the home. Flush, handleless cabinetry runs in clean lines to keep the architecture uninterrupted. The framing and orientation of key views from the building have been meticulously planned. Almost devoid of signs of human habitation, they ensure privacy and also provide a uniquely personal experience of the landscape.
Two bespoke bench moments define the project. The first is an inbuilt niche, fully wrapped in timber to create a sheltered corner for reading and rest. The second is a floating bench set against a full height glass opening, framing the sea as if it were a living artwork. Both pieces combine comfort with sculptural simplicity, each enhancing the feeling of being held within the cliffs.
Every element was crafted to enhance the quiet beauty of the site. The natural materials, precise detailing and tailored joinery work together to create a home that feels beautifully resolved and connected to its surroundings. Our design team collaborates closely with clients and architects to develop solutions that are both functional and finely made, ensuring every piece fits the architecture and the way the home is lived in. The result is joinery that elevates the space with quality you can see and feel.
