“2hD approached our ideas with a completely fresh eye. They came up with a solution which, in retrospect, feels simple and natural, and yet completely changed the way we use our home to be together!”

“2hD really listened to our needs and ideas. And they managed to integrate them in their design thinking to completely transform our apartment.

We didn’t expect this project to have such an impact on how we experience our home. It used to feel like a small apartment. Now it feels like a spacious house!”

“This is what I call an immersive experience! It was incredible to witness my own avatars being destroyed in real time, as I performed the piece. 2hD’s work, under the artistic benevolence of Alain Fleischer, gave an exponential dimension to Yann Robin’s composition, merging the visual and musical architectures into one.”

“Appointing an architect has been one of the most valuable expenses of the project. I guess that it varies with the architecture practice you are working with, but for our project, 2hD have worked perfectly and have created a home totally adapted to our lifestyle and our constraints. Everything was taken into accounts: daylight, the connections between the spaces, their volumes, their different levels... They created something completely new out of the barn!”

“As a freelance journalist and amateur painter I wanted a flexible working space set apart from the house, with a distinct personality that would, nevertheless, not clash with the village setting. 2hD’s proposals fulfilled my checklist and the practice worked intelligently with us and our builder to realise these ambitions.

The studio is a real joy. Being flooded with natural light and with high levels of insulation, it uses little energy. I seldom turn on the lights, even on the gloomiest of days, and the stove is only lit occasionally, as the building keeps a regular temperature throughout the year.”

“We’re very happy with the transformation of our home — 2hD really spotted and brought out the potential of the cottage. When the project was on site, the architect continued to work closely with us and the builder to make sure we got the result we were looking for. Now we feel right at home.”

“We were given an idea and turned it into our own. We´ve had freedom to use our imagination: doing nothing but making something!”

“The enjoyment with this wonderful pavilion is so great that — despite the summer weather outside — everyone wants to be inside it, and all faces are lit up with joy!”

“2hD’s impact was in developing a lasting understanding of the creative processes and demonstrating to young people that creativity isn’t just about having good ideas. That has to happen within a framework of understanding the issue, consulting others and evaluating how far your ideas meet your original intentions. 2hD also acted as a bridge between the school and higher education which had a significant impact on the girls.”

“The house has performed well and we are very happy with its aesthetics, comfort and technical performance. It blends in well with the village despite being obviously modern. Many passers by stop to enquire and pass comment on the house, usually very favourably. We often see cars slowing down in the road outside, almost stopping to catch a second glance.

All the energy bills for the first year of occupation, plus the running of an electric car and water rates, were covered by the return from the solar panels, leaving us only council tax to pay!”

“Photos taken brilliantly, in all aspects of the word!
Nice, precise, detailed and beautifully captured with brilliant colours. We will definitely ask 2hD again to photograph our interior projects!”

“2hD have been committed to delivering the highest standard possible at every opportunity in our collaboration, which is absolutely how it should be and the reason why it has worked so well for all parties.

From our initial shared exploration of the site, they were very engaged with my responses and ideas, responding quickly with visualisations and practical suggestions for the making process. The principle of our collaboration was to understand where our common ground was and how best to pool resources and create design without compromise.”

“Thanks to 2hD for their outstanding work! With the 3D model, we can browse, move and observe every corner of the building: a true manual that allows us to reproduce on site what has been imagined by the architects.”
