Inside A Coastal Cornwall Residential Project

A little glimpse inside one of our coastal Cornwall residential projects as we head into the weekend.

This open plan kitchen and living space is all about bringing people together, with warm timber tones, natural materials and plenty of connection to the surrounding landscape.

A calm place for morning coffees, family gatherings and those quieter moments at the end of the day. It is always exciting to see how the details of a project come together and start to bring a home to life.

We are looking forward to seeing this project progress through the next stages of design and towards construction.

From all of us at Laurence Associates, we hope you have a lovely weekend.

The studio will be back open on Monday, and we are always happy to chat about new architectural enquiries.
