Architectural Photography of a Modernist Contemporary family home

Architectural photography of a modern contemporary family home

This photoshoot was commissioned by the Architects, MUA Studios Architects. They required architectural photography for their website and marketing material.

They were commissioned to refurbish this family home, which was dated and tired. Taking the existing structure, they reconfigured it and added on a double height extension. The brief was to transform the property into a modernist contemporary space. Using elegant black frame windows and doors downstairs they achieved this brief. The strong contrast created by the black frames against the lighter exteriors make a bold visual statement. The open plan design of the living areas and high ceilings connecting through to the kitchen gives a feeling of space and light. Modern paintings contribute to the contemporary feel in the house. The mid century furniture complements the artwork and contrasting interiors.

Day of the Photo Shoot

On the day of the photo shoot it was very grey and overcast. We were unlucky in that it rained all day! This can make it challenging to get good outdoor photographs, but sometimes can help with interior photography. Bright sunlight creates extreme shadows inside, but the softer light of a grey day can help with more even and consistent lighting inside. Photographed using natural light and fill in lighting, the resulting photographs show the spaces at their best, allowing the architectural design to be shown off at its best.

The light bright decor follows through to upstairs from the downstairs. In the bathrooms white marble provides a luxurious feel, while the cool clean decor is maintained throughout the bedrooms. The photography captures the shapes of the rooms and interesting angles on the top floor, which follow the shape of the attic roof.

Interior photography Bournemouth

Working with architects photographing their projects is one of my favourite occupations. I love looking at and photographing Architectural photography.This residential house in Bournemouth was completed by architects ECA Architecture and Planning. The back of the house is mostly clad, while the front features half clad combined with classic elegant white render.

Inside a large open living space opens to a large kitchen area with island and a large corner seating area. A fantastic moulded ceiling feature runs the length of the dining area.Throughout the house clever lighting illuminates corridors and rooms.I photographed the house during the day and then returned at night to capture the house in darkness with light spilling out from the rooms to the garden.

Interior and Architectural photography for holiday let in Poole

This fantastic house was built on the site of an old bungalow. The owners retained the original footprint and built up using a timber frame structure for the second floor, allowing them to have a wide open living space and double bi-folding doors onto a balcony. Light floods in through the skylights and the resulting space is fantastically bright and airy.

Available as a holiday let, this property is situated one minute walk from the popular beach and park at Hamworthy. With a lovely big open space upstairs it is suitable for yoga retreats and larger parties.

I love photographing architectural projects like this, its really rewarding to work with a really nicely designed space and to capture the shapes and features of the build. The owners needed photography that would show all the spaces at their best for potential clients and were delighted with these final images.

Dorset Architectural Photography - black zinc cladding exterior

This modern chalet style house is an architectural dream house and is a great example of modern architectural photography. The black zinc cladding complements the oak clad interior and over hang. Indian sandstone paving runs the length of the back and side patio. The large patio at the back provides room for an outdoor seating area and BBQ.

Wonderful to photograph, architecturally this house sits beautifully into its surroundings, nestled into the woods behind. South facing it gets sun all through the day. The large overhang provides shade to the patio. And while there are four metre high glass panels, the overhang prevents the large living space from overheating. The large sliding glass doors slide all the way across the back, leaving a large opening for ventilation and fresh air to circulate in in the Summer.

Architecture Photography project

This architecture project was commissioned by architects Evans & Traves. Another great house, designed by them, they wanted to have the photographs to add to their portfolio. Situated in Poole, near to Sandbanks, this large house, planned over three floors is stunning. Bright and airy, light floods in from the top of the house to the ground floor and in through the big glass doors that make the fourth wall at the back of the house. A wooden staircase with glass balustrades runs creates a striking centrepiece within the house.

This was a joy to photograph, all bright spaces and wonderful architectural features. Using mostly natural light the spaces speak for themselves.

The top floor boasts a balcony and a view over Poole harbour. The big glass doors at the back open up completely to allow the outside into the living/kitchen areas.
