Jane Duncan Architects are currently looking for an enthusiastic Part 1 Architectural Assistant to join our office in Little Chalfont Amersham. We are a small, friendly and design focused practice specialising in high-end residential projects.

It has been a while since we posted, but a feature in last weeks Daily Telegraph’s Saturday supplement seems like a good way to kick things off!

Jenny Tucker’s article is about ‘How to create a modern age-proof home’ and The Zinc House is featured.

Huge thanks to our wonderful clients @francesmaceart for giving their time and for the kind words, we’ll take the quote, ‘completely brilliant’ any day.

Our recently completed new build in Radlett.

This new house replaced a much smaller, traditional property on the site.

Narrowly proportioned Danish brickwork has been combined with high quality render and limestone detailing to create a contemporary building, whilst simultaneously employing familiar vernacular architecture forms.

Generous glazing, views through and axial planning allow the heart of the dwelling to be filled with natural light and engage directly with the rear garden.

Always a pleasure to catch up with clients and revisit this amazing new build house completed a few years ago.

Our brief was to design a modern home for a sloping rural site, that whilst in a prominent, elevated position, would also sit quietly and not to be readily visible from the road or nearly public footpath.

The low key design and careful choice of materials help settle the house into its landscape.

Our conversion of this agricultural barn into a mo

Our conversion of this agricultural barn into a modern house is on the final stretch now.

In order for us to gain planning consent for the conversion, the appearance of the original, open barn had to be maintained. To help achieve this we set the new front wall back by 1.5m which exposes the original structure and gives the illusion of openness beneath the roof. The resultant overhang also acts as solar shading to the south elevation and creates a covered walkway and entrance canopy at the front of the property. The set back front wall will be finished in black timber to further enhance this effect.
