St Albans
Modern yet sympathetic to tradition, this home has been designed to meet the needs of a maturing family. Warm and energy efficient, the house is planned around a north facing courtyard with stream views, and includes insulated slabs and solar panels. Bold geometric shapes and softening timber elements interplay to create an inviting yet strong presence.
