The rather stunning oriel window has been installed at 310 Studio’s refurbishment of a beautiful family home on Doneraile Street in Fulham, South London. 

A recent trip around Donegal in the North West of Ireland allowed Paul an opportunity to visit all seven of Liam McCormick’s famed ‘Donegal Churches’ built between 1961 and 1977. The quality of the architecture ranges from prosaic to magnificent. The church below is St Michael’s Church in Creeslough, its form owing a lot to both Le Corbusier and Muckish Mountain to the West.

We recently got to revisit the beautiful extension to a typical Victorian cottage in Donnybrook, Dublin that we completed a few years ago and greatly enjoyed the sun streaming into the beautiful living room. It’s always heartening to revisit projects after a site has had time to settle into its new skin.  

The new slab has been poured at the Studio’s mixed use development on East Street - Exciting! 

We have been developing ideas around how to create a sense of arrival for a popular visitor attraction recently and it’s been a hugely  interesting process… Here is a developmental sketch image that starts to look at scale, visibility and degrees of enclosure.

Understanding the sun’s path over a given site and considering how best to draw daylight into spaces and offer views out is an abiding  pleasure in the design process! Here is Sam’s photo from his visit earlier this week to our Doneraile Street House project providing a great example of both.

3|10 Studio are currently working with the National Gallery in London as part of their NG 200 anniversary works programme. Jayson’s view from his site desk last week was rather spectacular..

Nearly two years in the works but the extensive external renewal of the Grade 2* Listed Howell’s School in Cardiff is finally coming to a close and looking very well indeed. Sincere thanks to principal contractors Eden London, Vaultstone Masonry, Camilleri Roofing and MDP Heritage Plastering, for their exceptional expertise.  

Preliminary works have begun on site at the Studio’s mixed use development on East Street in Bristol, a hop skip and jump from the 3|10’s offices! Exciting plans are afoot including a new home for the wonderful Bedminster Pharmacy. 

A simple point of arrival to a family home that visually connects the person arriving to the living space and right through the house to the garden beyond also. The old stone arch that can be seen over the opening was dug up on site when the foundations were being excavated and was thought too nice not to incorporate somehow!

3|10 Studio’s Designs for a 71 Unit, 100% Affordable Housing Competition on Midland Road, Bristol. The scheme seeks to wrap the units around a shared landscape that has a large childrens playspace at its centre, a community space that opens onto this playspace and wide access decks that encourage neighbourliness. The tall volumes were pulled away from the existing residential neighbours to be a good neighbour and avoid blocking out their light ! 

Modelling underway of 3|10 studio’s expansion of City & Islington’s campus in central London and teaching us a thing or two about the site and surroundings

A few shots from the Victoria Park remodel that’s nearing completion - a great job by Piotr & team

3|10’s custom designed Larder Cupboard is taking shape at Lock Cottage, beautifully crafted by Kestrel Joinery.

Our Concept Design for flexible office breakout space is progressing well.. .

A rather special project for the Wellcome Collection Gallery in London to ensure that the staircase within their historic building complied with modern standards. The extension to the existing brass handrail has no permanent fixings into the historic fabric and the whole installation, in steel and brass, is entirely removable without leaving a trace.  

Nice to visit site of 310 Studio’s wholesale remodelling of Hanham Lock Cottage on the River Avon and see the flint block wall of the South Side extension taking shape. The principal contractor can be seen inspecting the works to the right of the photo! 

It was hugely rewarding to visit the site of 3|10 Studio’s recently completed Lake House at Cedar Creek Lake, just south of Dallas, Texas. Our thanks to our extraordinary clients and Hosts, Chris and Chrissy, and our immeasurably talented photographer Conor Doherty (@conordohertyphoto)

3|10 Studio have been awarded planning consent for the sensitive modification of Septimus Warwick’s Wellcome Collection Gallery building from 1932. The new ramp, entrance and internal replanning will create a greatly enhanced disabled access and user experience for all. 

We had the wonderful Pete Helme in last week to shoot 310 studio’s new office’s at Brightbow Workspace in Bristol - a few details of our lovely handrail below and more to follow on the project page soon!  hat’s off to Madden and Rose Contractors and Mark Wilson Metalwork.

310 Studio’s Lakehouse at Cedar Creek Lake, just south of Dallas, Texas is nearing completion on site - very exciting to see the site photos and looking forward to the next visit! 

The scaffold has finally been struck at 3|10 Studio’s offices to reveal our handsome new Agrob Buchtal ceramic tiled facade (thank you Jeremy). Some finishing works still to do but great to see the new elevation emerging! 

The studio have recently been appointed to undertake a mixed use development in North London. Early design work is underway and throwing up some exciting chalenges!
