Gravel Farm
Due for completion in summer 2015, and affectionately referred to as ‘The Iceberg’ within the studio at DWA, half of this 16,000 sqft new build dwelling is below ground incorporating a fantastic Basement extending way beyond the boundaries of the building above and including a Display Garage, Swimming Pool and leisure facilities. Above ground, living accommodation is split over three floors.
The architecture of the building is a modern interpretation of a traditional timber framed dwelling with materials such as solid oak framing and lime render sensitively contrasted with aluminium and glass.
A profound knowledge of historic building techniques and styles is key to ensuring this building displays quality above and beyond that of a pastiche replication.
