Design Concepts.
One goal in designing & building our own home was to create a place that served us well, now and in the future, and reflected how we like to live.We wanted our house to be:
- Open …inside to outside / …in plan / …in concept
- Natural …materials / …garden view / …outdoor rooms
- Contemporary …energy efficient / …clean lines / …future thinking
- Artistic & Fun …a sense of humour / …walls and canvases / …sculpture nooks
- Nurturing …light / …air / …nature
The key areas we paid attention to in order to achieve this were:
- Sustainable choices and principles
- Existing site conditions
- Materials & methods
- Siting & landscape
