Episode 4 of our long overdue cabin diary is now live in the journal section of our website. See link in bio.
Also, we have an exciting new cabin to share with you, (well sort of), as ‘Architect’s Cabin’ is becoming ‘Bather’s Cabin’. This renaming better reflects the celebration of bathing rituals that has been designed into the cabin, which was originally inspired by Peter Zumthor’s Therme Vals. At the heart of the cabin is a hand-crafted spa occupying most of the cabin’s floor space. It will have an intimate soaking tub overlooking the forest, plus a secluded rooftop deck with a sauna, hot tub and ice bath offering complete privacy amongst the trees for a true forest bathing experience. Wee wah woo wah.
Fear not though architecture lovers, as Architect’s Cabin will be reincarnated at some point soon.
Anyway, back to the film… In this episode, we’re building and raising the timber frame of Bather’s cabin, beneath the towering oaks in our ancient woodland at Great Park Farm. Throwing ourselves all the way back to February 2025 where the story continues, (sorry we are a little behind on the editing), we show you what we were up to back in Spring with a first peek at the spaces we are creating. (It’s around 10 minutes, the perfect length for pre-bed viewing, so you can dream about cabins all night). Let us know what you think ☺️
This project was a labour of love for WORKKS. As Built Works we will build on the work we did to push the integration of technology to improve environmental performance into homes that are a joy to live in. Natural light never gets old.

A little corner of a little project in Stoke Newington. We designed a roof extension and interiors renovation for a one bedroom top floor apartment in a Victorian terrace house. Bespoke wardrobes, Osmo Oil and Farrow and Ball paint come together in the renovated bedroom. Ironmongery and lighting from Dowsing & Reynolds.

A work in progress shot from our Kendal House project 🛠 . We fabricated the white concrete and Honister slate hearth in house.
The stove is an ultra efficient wood burner with catalytic converter from @burleyfires fitted by @cumbriastoves 🔥 . Bit of work on the floor boards and decoration to go. The 1970’s imitation marble surround and gas fire have been removed and the original arch revealed that would have housed a range stove.

And an exterior detail of our South London Conservation Area extension 🌼. We always pay special attention to the lighting within our projects. Low level lighting on a patio or terrace provides enough illumination to see where you are putting your feet, but also creates flattering light without nose and chin shadows! 👃 🌗

Another interior shot of our South London extension of an Edwardian house in a Lambeth conservation area. New structural openings in the original masonry and large skylights in the newly constructed extension bring plenty of natural light into the central rooms of the floor plan ☀️.
