This home in Epperstone presented an interesting challenge. Located within the Green Belt, it had been extended several times over the years, resulting in a fragmented layout and an overly complex appearance.
Rather than making it bigger, we focused on making it better. By redistributing the existing footprint and volume, we created a more efficient family home while working within Green Belt constraints.
Internally, amongst other layout optimisations, we introduced a new double-height entrance and relocated the staircase to transform the arrival experience while improving light, views and the flow throughout the home.
Externally, the architecture has been simplified with a refined roof form, carefully considered window proportions and a more restrained material palette to create a stronger, more coherent identity.
A new landscape design brings the entire scheme together, creating a series of distinct outdoor spaces that respond to the rooms alongside them, strengthening the relationship between the house and its gardens.
The project is currently at the concept / planning stage, and we look forward to sharing more as it progresses.
