This project is an exciting garden scheme for a new house near Box that replaces a group of redundant farm buildings. Lying on the side of a steep hill, there are magnificent views to the south which inform the design.
The three dimensional geometry is highly complex, requiring considerable terracing. However, this has been achieved with minimal disruption to the beautiful existing landscape. A dramatic watercourse has been created, consisting of a series of pools and a canal which passes the house before discharging into a large circular mirror pool.
