Connected Spaces

Spaces designed to work together as part of the wider architecture.

A kitchen rarely exists in isolation. Dining, living, utility, pantry, boot room and entrance spaces all contribute to how a home works and how it feels.

StudioDeWynter considers these connected spaces together, creating a coherent relationship between layout, circulation, cabinetry, furniture, materials, lighting and architectural detail.

From space planning to resolution

The focus is on how spaces relate to one another, rather than treating each room as a separate project.

Brief → Design → Proposal → Develop → Specify → Tender → Coordinate → Deliver

The design considers the wider composition of the home, resolving the relationships between spaces while responding to the way the client lives.

Each project is individually scoped according to size, complexity and level of detail.
