Following the appointment to design a new office for a holiday lettings company in Helston, we were approached by their sister company in Hayle to provide them with new accommodation, just 200m from their current location.

​

The design incorporates a substantial glulam timber frame, presenting itself as a natural, healthy, light framework throughout the office workplace. Working with a locally based timber frame company from early in the design stages, we were able to design in a way that respects and balances the architectural and structural seamlessly through materiality and considered use of spatial thresholds.

​

The building will be wrapped in timber shingles, with timber cladding to the gable ends. The roof is adorned with a number of copper clad wind chimneys, promoting natural stack ventilation through the office.
