The full content of every post is also available in a single file: https://demofolio.superblog.click/llms-full.txt - [About the studio](https://demofolio.superblog.click/about.md): Folio is an architecture and interiors journal from a small practice in the west of England. - [A house that is mostly roof](https://demofolio.superblog.click/a-house-that-is-mostly-roof.md): A single-storey house in the Welsh hills where the roof does the work of walls, and the walls barely exist. - [The staircase as furniture](https://demofolio.superblog.click/the-staircase-as-furniture.md): In a narrow London terrace, a staircase built like a bookcase, and the room it made on the way up. - [Concrete, and what it does with light](https://demofolio.superblog.click/concrete-and-what-it-does-with-light.md): Three buildings, one material, three completely different rooms. On board-marked, polished and pigmented concrete. - [Why the window is where it is](https://demofolio.superblog.click/why-the-window-is-where-it-is.md): A window is a decision about what to look at and when. Four windows from one house, and the reasons for each. - [The courtyard house, revisited](https://demofolio.superblog.click/the-courtyard-house-revisited.md): The oldest plan there is, built again on a suburban plot. Owen photographed it a year after the owners moved in. - [Restoring a mill without pretending](https://demofolio.superblog.click/restoring-a-mill-without-pretending.md): A water mill turned into a house, where the new work is plainly new and the old work is left alone. - [A kitchen with one worktop](https://demofolio.superblog.click/a-kitchen-with-one-worktop.md): Nine metres of oak in a straight line, and a kitchen that needs nothing else. - [On not drawing the furniture](https://demofolio.superblog.click/on-not-drawing-the-furniture.md): Why our plans show empty rooms, and what that asks of the people who live in them. - [Brick, laid the slow way](https://demofolio.superblog.click/brick-laid-the-slow-way.md): A garden wall built by one bricklayer over a summer, in Flemish bond, with lime. - [A room for one window](https://demofolio.superblog.click/a-room-for-one-window.md): A reading room built around a single north window, and the chair that was made to fit it. - [Repairing a slate roof](https://demofolio.superblog.click/repairing-a-slate-roof.md): How a two-hundred-year-old roof was stripped, sorted and relaid with the same slates, in the same order. - [What we learned from a very small house](https://demofolio.superblog.click/what-we-learned-from-a-very-small-house.md): Thirty-eight square metres, one person, and the rules it taught us about every house after it.
