Set amongst a verdant backdrop and overlooking the river Avon, the site offered great potential with inspiration being taken from the natural topography of the site, the river and the long-distance views.
To the North-West across the floodplain, Salisbury Cathedral’s spire can be spotted, and the South-West aspect affords a far-reaching outlook across the water meadows and down the river.
These constraints orchestrated a multifaceted three-winged approach to the design, with the house carefully positioned to avoid close proximity to the banks of the river while the cranked form of the house responds to each of the views.
