Studio 30 ArchitectsA comprehensive renovation and extension of a Grade 2 Listed Building within the Cross Street Conservation Area in Islington, London.
The extension of this listed property involved sensitive negotiations with the planning authorities to secure a successful outcome. Once secured, this project involved extensive remodelling throughout and the construction of a part two storey extension to the rear to create dramatic living accommodation that spills out into the garden behind. The renovation and terracing of the garden adds to the spatial qualities of the internal and external living space. A master suite in the converted loft completed the works, releasing views across the surrounding London rooftops.
The Artisans Group, Inc.This prefabricated 1,800 square foot Certified Passive House is designed and built by The Artisans Group, located in the rugged central highlands of Shaw Island, in the San Juan Islands. It is the first Certified Passive House in the San Juans, and the fourth in Washington State. The home was built for $330 per square foot, while construction costs for residential projects in the San Juan market often exceed $600 per square foot. Passive House measures did not increase this projects’ cost of construction.
The clients are retired teachers, and desired a low-maintenance, cost-effective, energy-efficient house in which they could age in place; a restful shelter from clutter, stress and over-stimulation. The circular floor plan centers on the prefabricated pod. Radiating from the pod, cabinetry and a minimum of walls defines functions, with a series of sliding and concealable doors providing flexible privacy to the peripheral spaces. The interior palette consists of wind fallen light maple floors, locally made FSC certified cabinets, stainless steel hardware and neutral tiles in black, gray and white. The exterior materials are painted concrete fiberboard lap siding, Ipe wood slats and galvanized metal. The home sits in stunning contrast to its natural environment with no formal landscaping.

HGK Hamburger Grundstückskontor GmbHEntstanden ist eine elegante, bungalowartige Villa im Bauhaus-Stil mit einheitlichem Charakter und doch zwei verschiedenen Seiten: Während sich der Bau zur Straße hin eher zurückhaltend und geschlossen zeigt, öffnet er sich der Hangseite mit maximaler Transparenz. Die großzügige Verglasung aller Räume erlaubt viele Ein- und Ausblicke und sorgt obendrein für eine organische Beziehung zwischen Haus und Landschaft. Genauso harmonisch ist der lichte, penthouseartige Schlafbereich im 1. OG zum Wohntrakt gestaltet – mit hellen, ineinander fließenden Räumen um die riesige Terrasse gruppiert.
John Senhauser ArchitectsTaking its cues from both persona and place, this residence seeks to reconcile a difficult, walnut-wooded site with the late client’s desire to live in a log home in the woods. The residence was conceived as a 24 ft x 150 ft linear bar rising into the trees from northwest to southeast. Positioned according to subdivision covenants, the structure bridges 40 ft across an existing intermittent creek, thereby preserving the natural drainage patterns and habitat. The residence’s long and narrow massing allowed many of the trees to remain, enabling the client to live in a wooded environment. A requested pool “grotto” and porte cochere complete the site interventions. The structure’s section rises successively up a cascading stair to culminate in a glass-enclosed meditative space (known lovingly as the “bird feeder”), providing access to the grass roof via an exterior stair. The walnut trees, cleared from the site during construction, were locally milled and returned to the residence as hardwood flooring.

Fineline ArchitectsAn elegant and unique extension was a key part of the brief for the works to this 6 bedroom Arts & Crafts country house near Henley-on-Thames. A whole house refurbishment rationalised and upgraded the three levels of the property with the ground floor extension creating a bespoke entertaining space within the new kitchen.
VB DesignC’est pour cela qu’à travers notre construction nous avons souhaité faire un clin d’œil en réalisant une construction s’inspirant de l’acier corten, qui est un matériau à l’esthétique idéale, mettant en valeur par le contraste du moderne et de l’ancien, la maison existante.
