About True North Designs

A person with tattoos is working on a sketch or blueprint at a wooden table with various drawing tools and notebooks. A small vase with white flowers is also on the table.

I work closely with each client to understand how they live, what they value, and how their space can better support them. Every home is different, and every project deserves careful consideration.

Whether it’s a single storey extension, a new build home, or a garden office, I aim to create designs that feel natural, balanced and appropriate to their setting.

Clear communication and practical guidance are at the heart of the process.

Our Design Philosophy

Great design isn’t about trends, it’s about proportion, light, flow and connection to place.

I believe that homes should:

• Respond to their surroundings
• Make the most of natural light
• Improve how you live day to day
• Add long-term value

By combining creativity with practical planning knowledge, I help clients move confidently from concept to submission.

Professional Background

With experience in residential design and planning-led projects, I understand the importance of both creativity and compliance. Each project is developed with careful attention to local planning policy, scale, context and buildability.

As a small, independent studio, True North Design offers a more personal alternative to larger practices, providing direct communication and focused attention on every project.
