Design Proposals | We are enjoying exploring #design proposals to extend & reconfigure a detached, late 20th Century property in south #Cambridge ⭐️

The proposals include a contemporary extension, which expands into existing spaces to make best use of the existing footprint + minimise build costs. This allows us to create useful flexible areas that are perfect for a young family, be that a playroom visible from the main kitchen, games/music room or a home office space! We love to be mindful of how a home can adapt to the evolving needs of its owners + how we can help plan for this in advance 🧡

Client Feedback | ‘We used MOOi to design an extension to our home in Cambridge. We are so delighted with the design. It connects our house to the garden and has let so much light in. Everyone who sees it just says WOW! MOOi are a joy to work with and very responsive. Highly recommend!’

Design Proposals | We are currently exploring #proposals to #extend & reconfigure an 1960’s detached property in #cambridge, CB1 ⭐️ This proposal includes a two-storey rear extension with an asymmetrical roof form to maximise the south-facing roof slope for a solar panel array ☀️ At ground floor the overhang of the projecting green roof helps to limit solar gain & the splayed plan encourages indoor/outdoor living & dining extending out onto the rear terrace.

Externally the contemporary additions are clad with mixed red, bronze & purple clay arrowhead tiles, which complement the tones of the existing brickwork & provide a warm, textured material quality 🧡 #designproposal #renovation #MOOi

Client Feedback | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
‘MOOi have been instrumental in the entire process of the design and construction of our new home … professional, dedicated, resourceful and friendly. They care deeply about how their design fits in with the lifestyle and needs of our family. Their attention to detail and strive for energy efficiency are commendable. We would highly recommend MOOi Architecture.’

We’re delighted with this review and another #fivestar rating from our #cambridge clients after we worked together with them to design and build their new home, packed full of #eco features and contemporary design detailing. MOOi managed the process from initial scoping to finalised design ideas, through planning approval and building regulations approval, to contractor and landscaper coordination, project management and regular site visits to a completed family home.

Design Proposals | We love exploring the sectional relationship of our proposals, either to test or convey a conceptual idea at an early design stage 🧡

This project includes a part single-storey, part two-storey extension for a #victorian property in central #Cambridge.

The proposals feature a double height void which funnels natural light down into a new open plan kitchen/dining area at ground floor, as well as providing natural light into a new bedroom suite at first floor above. This solution maximises natural light and maintains privacy for adjacent gardens & buildings in a dense urban location ⭐️

Design Proposals | We are currently exploring sketch #proposals for a contemporary extension for a large detached property in central #Cambridge featuring an open plan layout, combined with sliding partitions to provide adaptable spaces for flexible living ⭐️ The polished concrete floor, worktops & splashbacks, combined with the #MOOi orange 🧡 kitchen add some vibrancy to this north-facing aspect & the full height sliding doors provide an uninterrupted view out onto the fantastic rear garden of this property 😍 #sketchideas #MOOi #Architects

Design detail | Our new build property in #cambridge is nearing completion with the vertical slatted screen for the bespoke #oak stair now installed ⭐️ The feature screen extends between basement, ground and first floor levels. This provides a focal point + material consistency that adds warmth and texture to compliment the #porcelain tiles and #herringbone flooring.

The property is controlled by a fantastic smart home system from @baulogic.uk 🧡 Allowing for the seamless control of all aspects of the highly complex M&E installation in this property! Amazing work as always by Main Contractor Offord & Camp and from Interior Designers @belvisifurniture #MOOi #sitevisit #workinprogress #underconstruction #sipsbuild #oakstairs

Lantern House | Our project in Newnham, #Cambridge with its dramatic funnelled, lantern ceiling, #tadelakt chimney breast and @barbasbellfires #fireplace 🧡 We love the muted natural tones of this room complemented by the brushed oak #herringbone floor, @littlegreenepaintcompany decorating and the “Crittall inspired” @iqglass doors #archigram #architects #MOOi

Client Feedback | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
‘MOOi were great at designing and managing our big build and refurbishment. The design ideas were clever, stylish and reflected our requirements and requests well. They have translated into an elegant modern home. MOOi were also good at managing the build and dealing with our builders. I would unreservedly recommend MOOi and use them again.’
