Isabella achieves Forbes 30 Under 30

We are delighted to announced Isabella Webb’s place on the prestigious Forbes 30 Under 30 list for 2022! Under the category Manufacturing & Industry, Isabella received this accolade for her unique online concept ‘Home and Maker’, which is a simple-to-use service that connects homeowners with architects and designers virtually.

 

About Isabella

 

When Isabella joined DB3 in 2019 as Part 2 Architectural Assistant, she supported our Aberystwyth team of architects on all small scale residential projects and extensions to historic buildings. When Covid-19 had the world on lockdown in 2020 and the architectural services market in the UK bottomed out, home improvement projects were on the rise. This inspired Isabella’s Home and Maker concept, which she submitted to our Innovation Board and a few months later www.homeandmaker.com went live.

Home and Maker is an online architecture practice offering services ranging from loft and barn conversions and extensions, to home office and right up to new builds. This new service sees DB3 Group shifting into the Business to Consumer (B2C) market, targeting homeowners directly.
