The brief for this family home was to create a house with space for large gatherings of friends and family.
The client’s childen are now grown up, so whilst the couple are empty nesters enough space was needed to accommodate the adult children and their soon to be offspring at festive and family holiday times.
The house is designed to capture the sun in winter and shade in summer reducing the need for airconditioning.
