Silver Birches
The brief & site
A confident contemporary family home of white render, warm iroko cladding and full-height glazing beneath a sharp mono-pitch roof.
A family of five wanted a generous, open home that connected completely to a mature garden, without losing the warmth of distinct rooms.

How we resolved it.
A crisp mono-pitch roofline caps a composition of white render and warm iroko timber, with full-height glazing and a frameless glass balcony opening the principal rooms to the treetops. Stone terracing extends the living space into the garden.
