Our Clients, a husband and wife, asked us to design a large estate home akin to the 19th century country estates in which they had both grown up within the same area.

Our challenge was to accommodate the needs of a modern family whilst executing a genuine Palladian building, that would in time  be indistinguishable from that of an authentic and admirable counterpart. This called for a great deal of research with regard the period architectural language, proportional systems, detailing and finishing techniques. The experience has led us to further research on the golden section and has enabled us to apply this proportional system to our more contemporary projects.
