We're bringing modern, sustainable design to Cornwall’s coastline
Sustainability isn’t an add-on for us, it’s woven into every stage of the design process.
From the moment we explore your brief, we look for ways to reduce energy use, improve long-term performance and make the most of natural light, ventilation and orientation.
We consider low-impact materials, smart insulation strategies and future-proof heating solutions, balancing environmental responsibility with comfort and practicality.
The result is a space that not only feels better to live in, but one that stands the test of time with a lighter footprint on the Cornish landscape.

“Adam and his team did a great job on designing the place. It was a fluid and enjoyable process. They really listened to what I was after but added ideas and designs beyond what I thought was possible. Blending traditional and contemporary styles to create something very unique.
Nice and talented bunch.”

“It has been a delight working with the team at Marraum. Jonathan the Architect (JB) took the time to truly understand our vision and needs transferring them into a thoughtful beautiful design for our future home. JB is a very good communicator and ensured communication was always clear and consistent throughout the process. Any challenges were met with proactive, thoughtful solutions. Every step of the design process - from the initial concept through to Sam submitting Building Regs, was handled with professionalism, creativity and a genuine excitement that has made us feel like our project truly mattered. We're absolutely thrilled with the end result and would not hesitate in highly recommending Marraum to anyone looking for a reliable, creative and client- focused architectural practice.”

“Highly recommended. Marraum helped us convert our old fashioned tiny 2 bedroom terraced house by the sea, into a stunning, contemporary and spacious home. They have an incredible eye for space and could see that with minimal extension and a reconfiguration, we could maximise the space, and the views! We are thrilled with the result. We would never have thought it possible to achieve everything they managed to accommodate in a relatively small space, and they rose to every challenge we set them. In addition to this, they were absolutely lovely to work with. We would certainly use them for any future projects”
