Adjustments to elevation detail



On the front elevation the extent of the zinc vertical cladding has been reduced on the infill between the two existing Victorian villas. We have retained the zinc as the rustication around the main entrance door and on projecting features.

Glazing bars have been played down at the rear of the development by changing their colour from white to dark grey, simplifying the overall composition.

Early designs for scheme in Bath

A design for four houses on the outskirts of Bath. Materials are proposed to be a mixture of random and dressed local stone with clay double Roman roof tiles. A shallow plan has been adopted to give most rooms a dual aspect and views to open country to the south. Staircases are positioned to punctuate the street elevation and strengthen the skin of the terrace.
