WELCOME TO MARRAUM
From the glimmer of an idea to the stroke of a pencil, the first turn of a door handle to the flickering of a smile across a face, at Marraum we bring more to your space – and take your story beyond its walls.
And we begin with you. Because at the heart of each architecture project – studio spaces, private loft conversions, commercial builds or building that dream home – are the people who use it.
They’re the yawns that stretch to eye-widening views in the morning. They’re the feet feeling cool concrete underfoot. They’re the eyes looking for inspiration at their desks. And the shoulders that hunker down in the evening. These are the people whose surroundings bring more to each and every experience.
With years of architecture and design experience in both Cornwall and further afield – paired with aesthetic drive, strong ethics and constant curiosity – we know how to make space work harder for you.So from beginning, middle and end – discover how you can bring your own story of space to life.

Planning Video for house renovations and extension in Devoran, Cornwall
Main Cottage
The proposal seeks to improve the provision and configuration of open living spaces, while creating a more functional and direct connection to the garden, to better suit the needs and lifestyle of the occupants.
The ground floor extension accommodates an open plan dining area, utility and WC. Bifold doors lead from the dining space onto the terraced steps and garden, bringing the benefit of natural light into the space.
There are no proposed changes to the existing first floor.
Lower Terrace
The proposal seeks to rationalise and improve the provision and configuration of functional living spaces, while creating a direct connection to the garden, to better suit the needs and lifestyle of the occupants.
At ground floor level, the designated main entrance to the property is no longer utilised. A bedroom, shower room, study and storage are proposed at this level, with stairs to first floor. An external door from the bedroom leads to the outdoor lower level courtyard area. New external steps lead up to the main garden area.
First floor level accommodates a living room and open plan kitchen/living/dining space, linking directly to the proposed paved garden area via bifold doors.
Externally, a designated and defined parking space is proposed, leading through a gate to the paved garden area from which the dwelling can then be accessed at either first floor level or ground floor level.
