[FILM] Building The Boathouse

18 Jul

In 2021 we began work on a very special project - designing the interiors of a new building on the banks of the River Wey in Guildford, commissioned by the Meins family - The Boathouse. They asked us to ensure that everything we specified for the building gave back to the world in a positive way, and over the course of the next two and a half years, that’s exactly what we did.

Very early in the build, we realised this was a very special project that would exist at the heart of the community for years to come, so we suggested they document the project in a short film. Our good friend, filmmaker Fraser Stephen, visited the site every few months, interviewing the historians, architects, builders and craftspeople who brought this building to life.

Here is the final film:
