Ten Forward Studios

Budget: $200,000

Location: Ringshall House

Ringshall House was a Grade 2 listed Project we took on in 2020 just after the Covid-19 pandemic. This project showcases some of my experience in dealing with Historic Buildings and the complex nature of bureaucracy that is involved in getting this to the finish line. It involved pre-planning apps, biodiversity reports, SAP calculations, the writing off of conditions, and endless negotiations with the Heritage team to complete this job. The job is now complete and listed online at double its buying price.
