Period Home Extension
This Client was after a grand, modern, family home drawing inspiration from Welsh manor houses. The client's love of art and music were to feature centrally in the design. To take full advantage of site's potential for views and integrate inviting outdoor living spaces which could offer shelter from the harsh coastal conditions.
The plan ensures every room enjoys sweeping coastal views. A deep veranda with substantial columns encircles the structure, acting as a buffer to inclement coastal conditions. The primary outdoor living area is sheltered within the protective arm of the building yet still enjoys an ocean vista framed by windows puncturing the central rooms.
This stunning residence assumes the grand presence of a country manor. The design frames the landscape, creating a dialogue between the built structure and its environment. Indoor and outdoor spaces work harmoniously together to create a hospitable, welcome retreat from the harsh coastal setting.
