Wispers shortlisted for Housing Design Awards

We are excited to share that our proposals for Wispers Estate near Stedham have been shortlisted for the projects category of the Housing Design Awards 2025.

The scheme carefully balances the restoration of Wispers House – a Grade II listed work by Richard Norman Shaw – with a sensitive enabling development, securing its long-term future.

The historic landscaped grounds inform a unique, rural, estate-led approach, where new dwellings are placed within character areas that respond to the estate’s evolution.

This sensitive, landscape-led masterplan integrates architecture and nature, ensuring that the conservation of this significant country house is achieved through a scheme that is both contextually grounded and enduringly sustainable.
