We design architecture for all: inclusive, barrier free and participatory


just a week ago there was nothing on our site but hidden drains and foundations. Then Johnstone Rigging arrived, with their cherry picker and 35ft crane (see previous post for how they negotiated it into the lane!), and ten ton of steel, and within three days we have the structure of our house .We can now stand in the tea drinking space and look across, through the sun room, to the garden. We can imagine how we will run up and down the ramp, and we can stand at our front door. Obviously this still takes a certain amount of imagination (and still needs months of filling in), but for the first time we can really believe that this will be the house where we will live.
