We moved to the sticks about 18 months ago. When we bought our house we knew it was too small and we always planned to expand it. I work from home, in a small spare bedroom and I have a music room (you can hardly call it a studio) in the other small spare bedroom. My girlfriend suggests I’m a volatile gas, expanding to fill any space provided. She’s right!

We decided to have a purpose built office & studio built. This is where it’s up to:

Unfortunately, things have done what they always do on TV and spiralled. It’s hard; you can’t exactly stop mid build. This silly building has more than wiped out our savings and has made me rather twitchy, especially given some life decisions I have made over the last year or so.

On the plus side, it will get finished and it will be a major asset. It consists of a double garage / workshop, a soundproofed studio (with booth etc.) and a design studio / office apartment. How coooool is that? I so look forward to my first ever purpose built space for music making. BRING IT!
