The Royal Academy Summer exhibition has run uninterrupted since it was started 252 years ago. Due to Covid 19 it has delayed it’s opening till the 6th October turning it’s Summer Exhibition to a Winter Exhibition. We are delighted that we have 3 pieces being displayed this year. Drawings of 2 of our current pavilion projects and a print from our Drawing Together with 300 participants Over Zoom created during lockdown.
We are happy to announce that our project Hampshire House has won a RIBA Regional Award.
The project is a new build house situated in a riverside setting in Hampshire. The client wanted to create a contemporary house with a connection to the surroundings. The house is arranged in a series of staggered volumes, which are conceived of as an entrance to the landscape. The spaces frame the three key views; meadows, lakes and gardens. In the centre is the top lit, double height kitchen, around which daily life revolves. The walls are flint quoined in Purbeck stone and the main frame is precast concrete. Windows and cladding are made from oak which is untreated and will weather to match the colour of the locally sourced stone and flintwork.
