Simon Vowles started his career as an apprentice draughtsman at Dartington Hall and went on to study Fine Art and Sculpture at Northumberland University and York University, Toronto.

Simon has been in the building trade for over seventeen years, first specialising in landscaping, garden rooms and swimming pools. Simon then developed a strong interest in traditional building methods and materials and has worked extensively on renovation projects from churches to Georgian manor houses.

In recent years, Simon has concentrated more on modern, ecological materials, working on a range of innovative extensions and new-builds.

Simon brings a range of both creative and practical skills to all of his projects and prides himself on being very client-focused.
