What we do
We are a design led practice that puts sustainable design at the heart of everything we do. Our work is bespoke and informed by you and the place in which your project is located. We aim to create a project that is truly yours, a comfortable, affordable and low impact place which you love to spend time in.
Our Projects
Here are just a few of our completed and ongoing projects, with the stories of how they came to be. Whether it’s a new home, Passivhaus, extension, retrofit or community building we will always tailor our services, designs and approach to you and your project.
Our Process
Our aim is to make the design process and realisation of your project enjoyable, collaborative and clear. Take a look at our guide on how we do this...and please do get in touch if you have any questions over how we work.
Who We Are
Croft Design Collective are a group of architecture professionals with expertise in the environmental design of buildings. Working together in our Sheffield Studio we aim to create beautiful, user-focused and highly sustainable buildings by working collaboratively with our clients and fellow professionals.
Formed by graduates of the Centre for Alternative Technology, a sustainable approach is at the heart of everything we do. We aim to go further to design buildings that are both healthy and comfortable for their users, whilst saving energy and money.
First Steps...
We like to start with a no obligation meeting with you, at the project site, to hear about your ideas and discuss how we can work with you to realise your project. This gives a chance to answer any queries and take a look at the opportunities of your site. Contact us to arrange this...

“We retained James and Flo from Croft Design Collective just before the pandemic to help us turn a dark kitchen / diner and poorly functioning conservatory into a light and airy functional family living and dining space. We really wanted something sustainable and energy efficient whilst at the same time being more than just a traditional boxed space. We had some other constraints being within the Conservation Area. What the team suggested, designed, and what has since been built, has really exceeded our brief. Through their maximising of light and windows, to the suggestions of innovative and efficient materials we have an extension that is both visually attractive and incredibly functional. We couldn’t be happier and the service we`ve received has been hands on, approachable and proactive at each step from creation to project management. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services”

"Now enjoying our dream home we feel extremely fortunate that we were able to engage Croft Design. Not only were James and Flo expert at translating our ideas into practical,cost effective plans they also added imeasurably to the creativity and quality of the build. Their brilliant design ideas have given our finished house a clean, open and spacious feel making the most of the site and by working with the planning authorities improving on the original permissions. By using innovative materials and ensuring the builders worked to exacting standrards we are the proud owners of an extremely efficient and sustainable home."

"The small extension designed by Croft blends perfectly with our bungalow. It was built with sustainable materials and we're delighted with the new ensuite facility."
