The brief

The existing house was cut into many small rooms; the owners wanted one shared space for the family, connected to the garden they had planted.

Constraints

  1. 01Floods of about 40 cm in wet years
  2. 02Two large trees to keep

Key decisions

Raised 80 cm

Small bored piles dodge the tree roots and lift the floor clear of past flood levels.

The result

On site now, handover planned for the first quarter of next year. (Sample text.)
