You don’t need an extension…
Tam specialises in creative ways to meet your brief without ripping apart your home. Saving you money, looking after your mental health and taking care of our planet.
There is another way.
This practice brings tangible, accessible, affordable solutions by a low carbon specialist bringing immediate relief, practical help and solutions you can manage.
This is for you if you want to work with an Architect but time pressured and need answers now, if you are financially pressured and feel trapped, if you want an eco-home but overwhelmed, if conflicting demands at home has become too much.
This practice moves you away from endless pinterest boards, short-term fixes and escalating budgets and brings you home. A beautiful, honest place.
A very different approach.
Mental shifts over physical change
The practice focuses first on how you see your home and helps you shift your perspective as a first step. This is a much cheaper way to feel change, recognising financial value that already exists and orientating yourself towards a re-imagination of your home without perfectionism and pressure driving your decisions.
Tam has worked with over 100 clients in their homes over the last 15 years developing professional tools which can radically change the conversation.
Connect with the natural world
This practice connects our decisions with the natural world giving you a far richer sense of home. We discuss your needs in relation the outside world, prioritising access, engagement and restoration of your external spaces. Looking after your health and wellbeing and looking after the planet are one and the same.
Tam’s expertise is in blending these requirements to create low carbon homes, they are a certified Passive House Designer and natural material specialist.
Relief, clarity & joy
You should leave our meetings feeling heard and held with a sense of progression, clarity and relief. This practice is about what you don’t need to do. It shifts away from an assumption that what is needed is more and focuses on what is already in existence at home, what’s within your local area. This practice halts the mechanisms which increase project costs, waste, disruption and consumerism.
Tam delivers immediate relief, expertise and assurance and a road map which is aligned with your values and goals.
The Outcome.
Tam works as a facilitator, building a road map through conversations rather than the production of drawings. The premise at this practice is about not doing things - shifting perspectives, simplifying actions and understanding what the critical works are to creating a low carbon, biodiverse home. You will leave with a road map which is accessible, affordable and sustainable - financially, socially and environmentally.
