The Quarry House in the Cairngorms National Park

A simple mono-pitch form follows the slope of the site, with a stacked stone wall running along the northern edge of the building, and extending out into the landscape on both sides, seamlessly connecting the house to the landscape. Large expanses of south-facing glass open the house up to the views across the valley, towards the River Don.

Strathdon House

This Strathdon house is a low-cost, energy efficient building, which requires no central heating, and utilises the heat of the sun. This combined with excellent levels of air-tightness, and a state-of-the-art mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system, provide a comfortable living temperature all year round.
