Exploring the house in it&rsquo;s early stages of construction the team talked me through all the details often referencing early developments originating from previous projects. Now being their own client all these exciting, bold and fun ideas melting away in the boiling pot over the years are being fully explored without limitations.&nbsp;</p> <p>A team of seven, they are also working on several other house refurbishments, a tennis pavilion as well as some outdoor public installations in Lincolnshire. Rhys along with director Emily showed me around the studio and their workshop across the road telling me all about studio life at Gruff Architects along the way.&nbsp;</p>
