Re-Format have just returned from our annual study trip!

This year we visited Berlin where our guide, Luis Kann, led us around Grimm Zentrum library, Museum Island, Pariser Platz and the Parliamentary District.

We loved the Grimm-Zentrum’s cherry-clad reading room and Chipperfield’s beautiful restoration of the Neues Museum was another office favourite. It was interesting to see some early, and surprisingly rational, Gehry at the DZ bank.

Re-Format has received planning permission for Keeper’s Cottage, our new dwelling on a steeply contoured woodland site in Surrey.

The main house and its ancillary accommodation are read as a small collection of 1 and 2 storey structures to form a contemporary farmstead.

The Humphrey Munson kitchen has been installed at our contemporary extension to a country house in the South Downs National Park. Lovely to see the kitchen opening out to the garden as designed.

Detailed planning permission has been granted by Waverley Borough Council for Re-Format’s dramatic new house near Farnham. The house is set into the hillside and has stunning far reaching panoramic views over Frensham and Hindhead.
