A pale brick family house with an angled, glazed gable.
A home for family life: a timber front door sheltered by a deep soffit, a kitchen and dining room that open to the garden, and a bedroom above looking over the trees.
Pale brick and a single sloping gable with a large window give the house a calm, simple profile. Timber fins add warmth, and wide sliding doors connect the living space to the terrace and lawn.
Honest brick, timber and large, well-placed openings.
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.
