David was asked to design a new dwelling in a prominent corner of a sloping site, which overlooks a park within a conservation area.
A long slim and low development was envisaged, nestling inside an enveloping arm of lime mortar and London stock brick. Providing shelter and privacy for the occupants, whilst maintaining minimal impact upon the neighbouring properties. The occasional carefully placed opening and thin roofline sailing above provide clues of what lies behind to the casual viewer. The gradient of the site is utilised by introducing a split-level arrangement with a clerestory window that lets daylight into the internal spaces within the plan.
