background
Elspeth Beard Architects - Chalk Dell
The brief was to design a new timber-framed house to replace an existing dilapidated 1960s dwelling. The area around the site has a distinct woodland character and this lends itself to a natural, earthy pallet of materials. Hence we designed a simple gable- ended form in a timber frame construction, clad in timber weather-boarding and hardwood framed windows, with a natural stone plinth and a slate roof. The house positioning, the internal layout and the external fenestration tries to maximise the views and to make the most of the spatial character of the site's contours and tree positions. Although the design uses traditional materials and has a traditional overall form, it also has a contemporary feel by virtue of its details, internal planning, and façade compositions.
