The Knoll
About the project
My Clients bought this large site with a view to radically alter the existing bungalow to create a contemporary home for themselves.
My concept was to open up the bungalow’s layout and to create a two storey bedroom zone with a single storey entrance hall that wraps around a new central courtyard. Circulation within the house flows around and through this courtyard to create a sense of space and volume. Day lit interiors with open flowing spaces have been created with views and links into the large mature gardens that surround the house.
Through the use of concealed sliding doors, the layout can be changed to provide more intimate areas. At first floor level, a roof terrace has been located that creates an area that is completely concealed from the neighbouring buildings
