Samskara UK
Samskara strives to achieve harmony in the built form by remaining true to our core principles and listening to our clients. Samskara is a team of like minded architects and technicians with a great knowledge and understanding of the built environment. We pride ourselves on good, efficient design with a keen view towards a sustainable future.
Services
Samskara offer a broad spectrum of Architectural & Building Services from planning applications and conceptual design ideas, right through to fully realised built projects.
We consider 3-dimensional computer drawings and 'walk-throughs' to be essential to the design process and as such undertake all work in house.
Samskara also design & craft our own top-end, bespoke kitchens, cabinets, wardrobes, windows, stairs and other joinery items.
On the whole, if you know the look you would like to achieve, we will create it.
Ipswich Borough Council would like to create a new sports pavilion of some note, which engages with the Community and provides access to a number of sports, whilst being sustainable, efficient and low in maintenance costs.
The Council requires a simple contemporary pavilion which satisfies the planning and technical guidelines set out by the Football Foundation and Sports Council.
The pavilion should be capable of adapting to the demands of the Council for the grounds including providing a considerable degree of flexibility permitting the future addition of changing rooms to accommodate the needs of the sports clubs.
The internal spaces and circulation are to be re-organised to provide a more significant entrance on the principal facade facing Hills Avenue, unify the external appearance of the dwelling while providing a large master bedroom with ensuite bathroom at second floor level.
The proposed design must reduce overlooking of neighbouring properties from the first floor.
Retain as much of the existing structure, in order to achieve the objectives without unnecessary expense.
By adopting a radical approach to the refurbishment and extension of a tired 1950's dwelling Samskara have created a splendid family home.
The proposed ground floor living spaces to the rear of no.201 should be the width of the plot, with a comfortable, sympathetic transition to the rear garden.
The proposed extensions must maintain the existing building lines of the Edwardian house.
The roof space should allow a visual connection with tree tops and sky.
Generally the design should be sympathetic to the neighbouring properties.
The house refurbishment and extensions should be designed for modern living, with well-lit ground floor living spaces extending to the full width of the plot, with a comfortable, sympathetic transition to the rear garden.
Please take the simple Planning drawings (produced by another firm of architects) and prepare design proposals with construction information to enable the dwelling to be built.
Design an elegant oak frame supporting structure and undertake amendments to the drawings as necessary.
Throughout the process of detailed & technical design the likely inherent stability of the approved design was called into question.
Working closely with our Client, Consultant Structural Engineers Peter Dann Ltd and Carpenter Oak Ltd, Samskara have created an oak supporting structure that is beautiful and appropriate, while enabling the building envelope to adhere to the building lines of the original planning submission.
