Gianni Batsford Architects aveva già elaborato un progetto per la House in a Garden quasi un decennio fa, ma le mutate esigenze del cliente hanno portato a sistemare le camere al primo di due piani interrati. Al piano terra, la zona giorno quasi interamente vetrata si apre completamente sul giardino privato. L’unica parete opaca, che ospita la cucina, è rivestita di rame che riprende la pannellatura opaca del tetto. La parte inferiore della copertura a forma di tenda è composta da travi incrociate di legno lamellare.

La copertura culmina con un lucernario. Progettata dallo studio Gianni Botsford Architects, questa casa a Notting Hill al piano interrato presenta anche una piscina di marmo.

Il lucernario, insieme alle vetrate, contribuisce a mantenere la zona giorno ben illuminata. I pozzi luce illuminano anche le parti più profonde della casa, che scende fino a 8 metri. Qui, superfici di marmo, legno chiaro e vetro contribuiscono a massimizzare la luce disponibile. “Costruire con luce e oscurità significa lavorare con ciò che ti offre il contesto – un insieme unico di vincoli e opportunità”, dicono gli architetti. Concepito seguendo la luce, il tetto dalle forme curve crea un nuovo luogo attorno a cui si svolge la vita della casa, con la possibilità di dare le spalle ai volumi che la circondano e interagire con il giardino.”
