work!
We found this rather extraordinary corner at the back of the wonderful Tyntesfield House on a recent ramble around its many delights, all lovingly looked after by the National Trust. What a way to turn a corner!

3|10 studio celebrated receiving notification of no fewer than three separate successful planning awards this week, two of which were in Conservation areas. The projects included a substantial extension to a beautiful Georgian Terrace house in Donnybrook, Dublin, A Yoga Studio and Office in a conservation area in Kent and a handsome two storey rear extension in the Midlands.
We’re very much looking forward to developing all three!

Bespoke, slender metal handrail designed by 3|10 Studio, crafted and powder-coated by fabricators in Yorkshire.
The minimal design creates a compliant handrail and balustrade for a tight staircase, within a loft conversion. The lines of the metalwork cast shadows onto the wall beyond, introducing contrast and drama to an otherwise simple attic space.
Demolition works have begun at Royal Albert Road in Bristol. The Client and Team are delighted to get onto site.
In collaboration with the local Bristol printing press ‘The Letterpress Collective’, we are currently designing new signage for the studios of Brightbow Workspace.

Concept proposals are taking shape for 3|10’s lake-house for Star Harbor Marina on Cedar Creek Lake…
The principal idea is to set up a series of parallel walls
running in the direction of the long axis of the site to make the building as
porous as possible and really exploit the connection with the lake from every
point in the house.
To celebrate the continued hard work, creativity and camaraderie of our team here at 3|10 Studio, we took a day off to celebrate together!
That’s right folks, adorned with staw boaters and with ‘Out of Office - ON’, we spent a wonderful day cruising along Bath’s beautiful canals - merrily eating, drinking and dancing!

Highlights included:- some 8000 handmade encaustic tiles made by Granby Workshop, laid within the Biennale’s central pavillion; the perfect alignment of shadow and light falling on the Swedish Pavilion; a trip to savour the rich detailing of Scarpa’s Castelveccio and last but not least - we were fortunate to attend an extraordinary musical performance within the depths of a quarry in rural Vicenza, conducted by Michael Nyman… a most moving experience that heightened all the senses!

Recently installed- bespoke security gates, that we were commissioned to design for the Wellcome Trust.
An elegant and robust series of decorative screens provides secure access and egress, whilst introducing a touch of colour and allowing light into the large windows beyond.
Created by a careful array of steel rods, each screen was fabricated by hand and powder-coated.
Some Bespoke furniture that the studio were comissioned to design for the Wellcome Trust Lobby has been delivered to site and put to use straight away!
The system is a simple steel frame overlayed with perforated steel sheet and cosists of a bench that slides under a worksurface that in turn slides under a noticeboard!
A bespoke cushion was fabricated for the bench whilst a machined, Maple veneered plywood penboarb / noticeboard creates a nice relationship with the maple panelling within the Wellcome Trust’s atrium space. Three coloured shelves were fabricated and fitted to the rear of the notice board for books or notices as required.
