Cawston Road

The striking geometry of the Cawston Road residence provides a foil for the leafy remnants and mature trees in the original and neighbouring gardens. The distinctive two-story cube has a counterpoint in the strong horizontal lines of the living-dining-kitchen pavilion on its northern side. The linear sweeps of white render and the use of cedar for window frames breaks up and dilutes the severity of the dark brick. Stephen Nicholls Photography
