The Station

Brief

The Station will be a multi-generational place for family gathering and story-telling by the fire.

Walls made from natural stone guide movement, add warmth, connect to site, passively heat and define public from private space.

The expressed structure of the new house connects with that of the existing cottage from the 1800s that will be restored. The original cottage will be made the focus of the layout with a visual connection made from all areas of the new house. The new house will perch lightly on the site with local timber milled for both cladding and structure.
