Architectural Designers in Oldham
Oldham's stone-built terraces and semis, from Failsworth and Chadderton to Royton and the Pennine-edge streets further out, are full of homes that need to work harder for the families living in them. As architectural designers working across the borough, that's exactly the kind of practical, considered extension we design well.
