New Homes
A collection of highly sustainable new properties, from individual houses for private clients to carefully planned residential developments.
01 New homes
From one home to a neighbourhood
Distinctive homes united by place, performance and quality.
Exedra designs new homes at every residential scale: individual houses commissioned by private clients, small groups of carefully related dwellings and volume housing for developers. Each project begins with the same close reading of site, landscape, orientation and the needs of the people who will live there.
Sustainability is integrated from the outset through compact planning, passive design, a fabric-first approach and efficient building systems. Material longevity, adaptability and landscape are considered alongside energy performance so that every home is both responsible and enduring.

01
Private client · Bespoke residence
Cornwall
A coastal home shaped by landscape and light.
A generously glazed contemporary house composed as a series of connected volumes. Natural stone, sheltered terraces and layered planting anchor the architecture within its coastal setting.
02
Private client · Hillside residence
Farnham
A house that follows the fall of its wooded site.
The stepped form responds to the contours, opening the principal rooms towards long garden views while deep overhangs and carefully placed glazing balance daylight, shelter and privacy.
03
Private client · Family home
Guildford
Section, structure and everyday life brought together.
A sectional approach places shared family space at the centre of the home. Double-height volumes, a gallery and integrated joinery distribute daylight through the plan and create strong visual connections between floors.
04
Developer · Residential masterplan
Weybridge
A coherent neighbourhood with a strong sense of place.
A landscape-led housing arrangement combining individual identity with a consistent architectural language. Streets, gardens and shared spaces are planned together to create a settled and legible residential environment.
05
Private client · Country house
Wallingham
A contemporary country house with a crafted presence.
Traditional proportions and roof forms are reinterpreted through a restrained palette, generous openings and a glazed stair that brings natural light deep into the centre of the plan.
06
Developer · New housing
Esher
Contemporary homes forming a new residential street.
A varied but coordinated group of homes creates rhythm along the street. Recessed upper floors, planting and carefully framed entrances give each dwelling identity while maintaining a cohesive development.
07
Developer · Riverside housing
Shepperton
New homes responding directly to the River Thames.
Pitched forms and vertical timber elements echo the character of riverside buildings. Large windows and balconies make the most of water views, while the landside elevation creates a welcoming landscaped frontage.
08
Private client · Country residence
Shropshire
A new house balancing familiarity with contemporary detail.
The design combines pitched roofs and a calm rendered palette with curved and fully glazed elements. The result is a distinctive family home that sits comfortably within a generous rural landscape.
09
Private client · Garden house
Crawley
A low-energy home conceived around an established garden.
Brick and dark metal define a robust, contemporary composition. The house opens selectively to its landscape, combining broad areas of glazing with shaded terraces and carefully protected private spaces.
10
Private client · Rural house
Dorset
A sustainable rural home expressed as a family of pitched forms.
The house draws on agricultural building forms to create a confident but recessive presence. Vaulted interiors, natural materials and expansive openings connect the living spaces with the surrounding countryside.
03 Sustainable by design
Performance designed into the architecture.
