We’ve worked with great clients and collaborators on some challenging projects.
When 2hD was established in 2003, the three directors brought with them a wide range of experience in structural, urban, architectural, web and interior design, from the education, heritage and commercial sectors. Working together we have built up a portfolio of projects which demonstrate some of that expertise whilst building our own way of approaching projects, supporting our clients and establishing an ethos for the practice.
Here are a few of our favourites…
A cottage refurbishment
Our client called on 2hD’s advice before purchasing this three bedroom house. The property had been through a number of poorly thought-through adaptations, resulting in awkward access and underused space. After seeing our sketch ideas for an immediate refurbishment project and a future scheme to extend the property, our client went ahead with the purchase. We were able to provide an outline budget for our scheme that gave our client confidence: they knew that they could afford to buy and adapt the property — ending up with a profit should they chose to move on, or the ability to extend the house should they chose to stay.

A barn conversion in Dordogne
We were delighted when Mélanie and Béranger approached us to help them convert an old stone barn in South-West France into their new family home. This was the perfect project to combine our interests in sustainability, self-build construction and conservation.
