We are up in the Highlands today re-visiting a site with our initial design concept. It’s so important at this early stage to stand on site with the layout and ensure that it makes best use of light and views.

Seeing the finishing touches come together on a project is always satisfying, but especially so when it’s a tactile and warm material like timber.

The final push for an exciting new build which we’ve loved being part of.

≺ RWA ≻

To all existing clients: like everyone else, RWA have been following the Covid-19 development. We have discussed the best approach to the ongoing situation and would like to reassure all our clients that we will continue to fully support projects, while ensuring our own well-being and monitoring any Government advice.

As a small practice, we are taking all the necessary precautions to ensure that your projects can continue to progress as normal. Neither Craig or I are showing any sign of symptoms or have knowingly been in contact with anyone showing symptoms; so for the time being we will continue to come to the studio as normal. At this time all surveys, site visits and meetings scheduled for the coming weeks will go ahead however if you begin to show any symptoms or are feeling unwell, please just let us know and we can re-arrange to a time that suits you.

Thanks and stay safe x

Light, shadow, warmth and tradition. Late afternoon; a great time of day to walk round with a new client on site, discussing family life and lifestyle before putting pen to paper.

≺ REMNANTS ≻

We love to work on projects that involve bringing abandoned buildings like this old farmhouse back to life.

We’re measuring up, taking note of influential site features and picking out the valuable parts of the building to retain - an essential part of the design process at RWA. We might suggest replacing the gutters though...

An oversized window, positioned opposite the front door, so every time you come home you’re reminded of the fantastic view! Whatever the weather....

Planning approval through for this modest but bold extension in rural Aberdeenshire. The design introduces a mix of contemporary materials and an asymmetrical roof to contrast the existing property.

Looking forward to progressing the project onto the next stage.

≺ IN THE MAKING ≻

Lots of nice details coming to life in this new home at Cross of Jackston.

A straight flight stair open to the entrance hall is top lit with natural daylight from the large velux roof lights above. Recessed handrail now being formed with glass balustrade due for delivery.
