Jon Plunkett, Community Director, Corbenic Camphill Community
“Taller Smaller architects have designed, and project lead the 1-million-pound Corbenic Community Barn project. Gavin and Judy have shown considerable sensitivity throughout this project, not only to the site itself, but to the community of staff, volunteers and vulnerable adults who will use the building. As a result, the building design not only meets the needs in terms of size and layout but is aesthetically in keeping with the other buildings while also being unique enough to add to the excitement and anticipation”.
Rachel and Simon Parkinson, Home Owner
“We couldn’t be happier with our home – it’s everything we dreamed of and more. The design perfectly balances a modern style with the old, creating a home that feels both contemporary and welcoming. From the very beginning, Gavin listened carefully to our ideas and brought them to life with creativity and attention to detail. Winning the design award was the “cherry on top” – it’s wonderful to see the craftsmanship and thought that went into our home recognised in this way.”
Stuart Banks, Home Owner
“With regards to feedback, overall we have been pleased with the end result from a design perspective and use of space. The extension has given us everything we asked for and gives us the connection to the garden that we wanted. We chose Taller Smaller as Gavin had come specifically recommended. We learnt a lot about a project, particularly about site visits and project management and would urge other people doing a large project to have the architects on site much more often.
We would be happy to recommend Taller Smaller to others particularly for use of light, space and sustainability.”

Rebecca Fordwood, Home Owner
“Taller smaller have been a delight to deal with and have helped me keep my cool when dealing with tricky builders and warrant sign off folk. They listened to what we wanted to achieve and offered advice and I’m pleased to say that we love the final result! Initial meetings and zoom calls were easy and at no point did I feel I was just agreeing to a design but that they were working to build a design that was both a great space to use and a great space to look at from other areas too (ground floor extension looking great from upper floor windows!). They helped choose the correct materials and stand firm against builder alternative options!
Would use again and highly recommend!”

Nicola Graham, Home Owner
“Our house renovation is one of the most stressful things we’ve ever done as a family, and I don’t think we could have done it without Judy!
Her knowledge and calm presence were such a huge support, but hands down the most exciting thing about working with Judy was the creativity she brought to the whole process. She always had new and different ideas about to solve problems and get the most out of what we were doing within the budget that we had. What we’ve ended up with is a beautiful space that is full of light and makes the most of every inch and we just couldn’t be happier.”
