A pale limestone courtyard house of arches and olive trees in the hills of Jordan.
A family house for living between the landscape and the pool: a double-height hall, a kitchen and living room that open onto a long terrace, and quiet bedrooms framed by arched windows.
Pale limestone blocks are cut by tall arched openings framed in bronze, and arranged around planted courtyards with gardens on the roofs. Olive trees, gravel and dry planting keep the house inside its landscape.
Stone that belongs to the hillside, one repeated arch, and rooms that look out to the land rather than inward.
Sinai, Egypt · Residential
We started with the canyon, not the plot. Two long floors sit back into the rock under deep roof planes, and the lower level opens straight onto a still pool that reads as an extension of the water.
The house takes its character from the place, so it cannot date.
United Kingdom · Residential
Warm brick, timber and stone give the house a settled feel, and large panes of glass tie inside to garden. The plan is arranged around arrival first and the terrace second.
Natural materials that weather well and a calm, balanced front.
Amman, Jordan · Residential
The house follows the slope in terraces. Limestone walls and olive planting root it in the hillside, and gates and walls give privacy without turning its back on the view.
Local stone, planting and a low profile mean it will weather into the hill.
