With the fantastic main house nearing completion, Dickinson Waugh were commissioned to deliver a spectacular display garage for the clients’ impressive motor car collection.

Utilising the original Coach House and adjacent to the hall, DWA have introduced sheer and striking lines to provide a modern juxtaposition between two already contrasting structures.

The extensive use of glass and steel, with light flooding the interior through cleverly designed glazed vierendeel trusses is subtly offset by the pigmented zinc cladding to the roof and walls.

This is a shining example of our ability to provide diversity in our designs.

As part of the proposals to convert this large detached Victorian dwelling in to self contained apartments (also a DWA project), Dickinson Waugh were commissioned to assess the viability of the functional re-use of an original coach house.

This lead to the proposal to demolish the coach house and replace it with a bespoke high quality dwelling enhancing the conservation area to which it belongs.

Dickinson Waugh are delighted to announce our appointment as executive architectural consultants for this fantastic 27,000 sq ft country dwelling and ancillary accommodation within a spectacular parkland setting.

Designed by the eminent Robert Adam of Adam Architecture, DWA have been commissioned to deliver this project post-planning to completion.

Watch as this exciting project develops through the studio here at Dickinson Waugh Architecture.

Due for completion in summer 2015, and affectionately referred to as ‘The Iceberg’ within the studio at DWA, half of this 16,000 sqft new build dwelling is below ground incorporating a fantastic Basement extending way beyond the boundaries of the building above and including a Display Garage, Swimming Pool and leisure facilities. Above ground, living accommodation is split over three floors.

The architecture of the building is a modern interpretation of a traditional timber framed dwelling with  materials such as solid oak framing and lime render sensitively contrasted with aluminium and glass.

A profound knowledge of historic building techniques and styles is key to ensuring this building displays quality above and beyond that of a pastiche replication.

Currently on site and due for completion by winter 2011, a spectacular new build dwelling that we’re proud to be associated with.

This former agricultural industrial site located high up in a remote part on the edge of the Peak District National Park is both a stunning and idyllic location for a dwelling.

The finished project will be impressive in size and has been designed to benefit from the stunning views available across the landscape. Another fine example of our talent for design combined with our technical knowhow.

Watch this space as this exciting project continues to develop.

Another large new build dwelling that we’re proud to be associated with.

This replacement dwelling required expert guidance through a tricky planning process. A bold modern Edwardian style building incorporating the use of ‘softer’ appropriate materials to allow a building with such impressive scale and proportion to blend sensitively with its environment.

Dickinson Waugh’s ability to adhere to a strict brief whilst understanding and designing within policy guidelines is perfectly illustrated with this fine project.

Dickinson Waugh are delighted to have been commissioned for this impressive and prestigious project in association with the talented Dawn Ward; who provided another quality interior.

This new build is a replacement dwelling located within the East Cheshire green belt. Designed to incorporate scaling and proportion synonymous with the classical styles of architecture, materials of the highest quality have been specified to ensure that the standard of design is reflected in the completed building.

Dickinson Waugh’s specialisation in this type of development has ensured a smooth transition from inception through to being on site with all potential pitfalls expertly negotiated.
