A selection of images and updates from the DS Architecture Instagram feed.

It’s fantastic to have work included once again within the ASA this year, with the Dublin Street Lane project featuring. So much good stuff going on in Scotland from a number of great practices

Principal elevation for a new 3 bed house set to be submitted for planning next week.
.
Set on a confined and sloped gap site, the design seeks to make the best use of the space available, laid out over 3 storeys (presenting only 2 to the front), while also offering a contemporary but sensitive addition to the eclectic streetscape

Fantastic news to hear that the Dublin Street Lane project has been shortlisted for a Herald Property Award 2021 in the Small Development category.
.
From initial designs in the sketchbook in late 2016, the project has evolved and come to life under the careful management of Carlsson Properties. Congratulations to all other nominees and fingers crossed for 30th September!

Structural roof ties over-clad in cedar in Kirknewton. A chance to maximise and celebrate the roof structure and ceiling line of the converted barn and create a real focal point in the space

An asymmetric form was adopted for this Morningside extension to maximise height and light to a secondary living space which also offers engagement with the garden.

Works are on the home straight in Portobello and one of the things completed since my last visit is the timber cladding. Looking sharp, but can you spot the concealed garden store door?

Part of the Blackford Road #refurbishment was to create a bright open #kitchen space which was achieved by knocking through two former spaces into one, and adding large glazed doors to the garden.
.
The kitchen itself was designed with the client and supplied by @archispek, and looks fantastic

Delighted to receive photos of the recently completed alteration and refurb project in the Grange, Edinburgh. The project saw the full overhaul of this handsome semi detached villa, including opening up a few rooms to create a bright open plan kitchen/dining space.
.
Huge credit to the @rollodevelopments team through what has been a difficult period to build anything, and thanks to @davidnarroassociates on the design front too.

Planning approved! Delighted to receive notice that the planning application for this new mews extension development has been granted by CEC.

Located on the picturesque Circus Lane, the new element will provide a visual bookend to the esteemed row of houses on the north side of the Lane

Great progress in Portobello with the @oroccoltd team, getting prepped for aluminium and timber cladding in the coming weeks. Large format sliding doors catching a lovely reflection of the site facilities too!

Unusually for a mews design, the proposal for Circus Lane presents 2 elevations, bookending the row of houses on the Lane and offering a chance to create a ‘soft’ corner by adopting a glass-to-glass corner window detail.

Thanks to the @touch3d_cgi team for the image

Planning and LBC applications submitted for the alteration and extension of this existing mews building on the prestigious and picturesque Circus Lane.
.
The site, at the eastern end of the Lane and currently occupied by a single storey garage, presents a unique opportunity to design a new structure that ‘bookends’ the row of houses on the North side of the street, with both south and east facing elevations.
.
Big thanks to @touch3d_cgi for the visuals!
