About

Location

Surrey

Completed

2011

Architects: Nye Saunders

Our clients acquired a site that allowed them to live on site whilst their new home was built in front of their eyes, a very new contemporary build interpretation on the local aesthetic.

The original plan had been for a steel frame for this new contemporary build given the span of the building desired. But after detailed consultation with us and the production of a 3D model, an oak frame was arrived at which would give the clients the open-plan living they desired via three central full-height cross frames and a fully raftered roof complete with five king post trusses.
