Rural new build house, Perth and Kinross

A challenging rural site on a steep hill in Perth and Kinross with long views. Our client has commissioned a family house with strong environmental credentials, the design looks to achieve Passive haus level standards wherever possible.
Our solution cuts into the hill to create natural thermal mass and locates the living spaces on the first floor to take best advantage of the views and enjoy the height created by opening up into the roof space.
Using a combination of local Whinstone cladding and contemporary zinc cladding on both the roof walls. The structure is a SIPS panel system to create the highest performance and air tight envelope.

Planning permission approved. In design to tender.
