Design Studies

Houses on the
drawing board.

Fully resolved schemes on real sites — some available as building plots with the architectural service included, others in development with private clients. The constraints-led thinking is the same.

Highwoods, Nailsworth — proposed single-storey timber-clad house on a stone plinth, with a cantilevered deck above the Cotswold valley

Bunting Hill, Nailsworth

Highwoods

A single-storey, 238 m² home designed for a sloping plot above the Cotswold valleys. Closed to the north, opened to the south, raised on stilts above the slope.

Available as a building plot with the complete architectural service of Webster Architecture & Interiors included to planning.

£350,000 · Freehold · design included

Crowell Brook, Forthay, North Nibley — proposed scheme: original cottage on the left re-clad in dark timber, new contemporary wing on the right under a standing-seam metal roof, both glowing in the evening light

Forthay, North Nibley

Crowell Brook

A whole-house remodelling of a Cotswold cottage, paired with a contemporary new wing under a standing-seam metal roof. The conservation move: keep what's good, replace what isn't, and let the new work be obviously new.

Designed and awaiting build.

Whole-house remodel · New Wing

Anthony kept the client front and centre of decision making, ensuring they got maximum value and importantly, a beautiful and practical addition to their home. The building is high quality and beautiful, with lovely use of materials and space.

What We Do

Three kinds of work, one practice, one designer from start to finish.

New homes & self-builds

From a freehold plot to a finished house, with the design, planning, and oversight handled as a single service. Resolve the design fully before a plot is purchased, where it helps.

Extensions & Alterations

Adding light, space, and contemporary living to existing houses, including listed and sensitive buildings. Long, productive working relationships with the local conservation team.

Interiors

Whole-house interior schemes designed alongside the architecture, so rooms feel inevitable rather than decorated. Available standalone or as part of a wider project.

Anthony Webster – Webster Architecture & Interiors

About the Practice

Based in Nailsworth.
Working across Stroud,
the Cotswolds and
beyond.

Anthony studied BA (Hons) Architectural Conservation at the University of Derby. The specialist course had strong connections with the Institute of Historic Building Conservation and the region’s professional conservation community.

Conservation architect Derek Latham, founder of the practice now known as Lathams and author of The Creative Re-use of Buildings, was a formative influence on Anthony’s approach to design. Through direct contact, Latham personally reviewed and guided Anthony’s work, sharing a philosophy of sensitively adapting existing buildings while introducing contemporary architecture of genuine merit.

Anthony also contributed to work connected with the Derwent Valley Mills bid for UNESCO World Heritage status. This involved working with buildings on the Buildings at Risk Register and developing proposals for their sensitive reuse—retaining what gave them character, removing poorly considered later additions and introducing new elements of architectural merit.

Today, Anthony brings more than two decades of experience in architectural design and conservation to carefully considered residential architecture and interiors. His work is guided by the same philosophy: understanding each building, respecting its context and creating thoughtful contemporary interventions that give it renewed purpose.
