PROJECT BIO
This bespoke new-build home, designed by Architecture North Ltd, was created to provide a modern, spacious, and highly functional living environment tailored to the client’s lifestyle and long-term needs. From the outset, the vision was to deliver a contemporary home that combines clean architectural lines with warmth, character, and liveability.
A key focus of the design was the careful use of natural light and open-plan living to establish a strong sense of connection between internal spaces and the surrounding landscape. Generous glazing, considered orientation, and an emphasis on flow between rooms help to create a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout the home.
The project required thoughtful negotiation of local planning constraints while still achieving a bold and refined architectural statement. By working closely with the client at every stage, Architecture North Ltd developed a design solution that meets both aesthetic and functional goals, while respecting the site’s context and neighbouring properties.
Energy efficiency and long-term performance were central to the brief, with the specification including high levels of insulation, modern building fabric strategies, and the integration of low-energy technologies. Internally, the layout was carefully planned to support modern family life, combining open social areas with quieter, private spaces and dedicated utility zones.
Architecture North Ltd provided a full service from concept design through to technical delivery and construction support, ensuring the client’s vision was realised with precision, care, and clarity. The result is a distinctive, elegant, and sustainable home that reflects both the client's individuality and the studio’s commitment to thoughtful, site-responsive architecture.
At Architecture North, we offer a complete range of services to support you through every stage of your project.
