The Lighthouse
The lighthouse is a complete rebuild of a 1950's semi detached house. The design is a modern reflection of the neighbouring property, allowing the house be contextually appropriate whilst also demonstrating a new contemporary architectural approach.
The house includes a new extensive basement and is characterised by the use of exposed brickwork and oak joinery.
The overhanging brickwork provides shading from the high summer sun to combat overheating whilst also providing a sheltered terrace space for outdoor entertaining.
Brickwork was used on the external soffit (ceilings) to emphasise the sense of brickwork weight and portray a heavy 'carved' character.
