Designed for how you live. Documented to be built.

Ridge brings residential design, detailed drafting and timber-framing expertise together in one practical studio — helping turn ideas into clear, buildable outcomes.

A practical design studio

Good residential design should feel personal, work in the real world and become easier — not harder — to build.

Ridge works directly with clients and coordinates with the wider project team to shape homes and extensions around lifestyle, budget, site conditions and the requirements that come with getting a project approved and built.

Design that stays grounded

One eye on the idea. One eye on the build.
