We are happy to announce our project for the sustainable extension, renovation and enerPHit upgrade to a family home in Cottingham, East Yorkshire has received full planning permission approval.
The last house along a leafy, tranquil lane in the village of Cottingham, Dusk-Dawn House radically enhances an Edwardian home’s capacity for healthy, sustainable living whilst minimising the house’s cost of living & environmental impact.
This project began with the dream of making a family home which nurtured the healthiest family lifestyle, connecting strongly to the home’s natural surroundings and long, verdant garden, a relationship largely ignored by the original house.
The house occupies a long east-west facing plot & our clients were struck by the dramatic quality of light that occurred in the home during early morning and late evening. Capturing this unique quality of warm, low sunlight became a defining quality for the project, highlighting the importance of natural light in a tranquil, healthy home.
