Georgian Splendour

February 6, 2023 / By rachel

The project involved complete refurbishment of the large detached property, along with the addition of a generous extension to the rear. Not only has the property been returned to its original Georgian splendour as a family house, but the works to the rear have created a fabulous, open plan kitchen-diner living space that connects to […]

Portland Square

Located in Cheltenham’s trendy Pittville area was a very tired one-bed flat, with draughty windows, decrepid wiring and an old bathroom positioned at the end of the kitchen. Our clients wished to re-model the flat to improve the layout and maximise the value. On visiting the property we discovered the old staircase to the basement […]

Curtilage Listed Coach House

October 29, 2019 / By admin

Following a year-long search, our clients finally found this property, whilst the location and land were ideal the property did not suit their requirements, however, with some consideration and careful adaptation we were able to create their dream home.

In 2017 RRA’s conservation team carried out a quinquennial report on the building to identify which areas required repairs. These repairs were categorised into levels of urgency from A for immediate repairs to D which is desirable. The initial works, identified as urgent, have been carried out as phase 1t. These included stripping back parts […]

Ford Abbey – Boutique Hotel

May 24, 2018 / By admin

The basic fundamental design approach has been the careful conservation repair of important heritage and the combination of all the service and fit-out demands of a 5 star hotel. We developed with the client body a hotel format and room strategy that allowed development of the brand and negotiation within existing structure. Wherever possible, the [...]

All Saints’ Church

May 24, 2018 / By admin

This was achieved through: sensitive insertion of flexible and adaptable spaces, the introduction of a café / restaurant to populate the space, and the creation of a mezzanine floor within the south aisle. This allows the nave to remain a free and open space allowing for liturgical and / or secular uses. The interventions are [...]
