Penrose Nursery House has been shortlisted for the third time this year! 🏆Build It Awards 2025 - Best Architect or Designer for a Self Build Project We couldn’t be prouder of this project — a heartfelt self-build for a couple who devoted their lives to helping others through horticulture. Highlights: • A light-filled, accessible home designed for comfort and connection to nature • A dramatic timber scissor roof and seamless glazing that dissolve the boundaries between inside and out • Built with reclaimed brick, locally crafted timber shingles and natural materials celebrating Cornish craftsmanship • A collaborative journey that brought together client, architect and makers in a shared vision At CREATE, we take pride in truly listening to our clients, understanding their needs, their story, and creating designs that feel uniquely theirs.
