The steel frame was anchored at four points with concrete piers. This structure supports a concrete oor slab on which the house, measuring over 100m square stands.

The structure and shape of the house reduce its carbon footprint on the land. The two main facades face north and south, an orientation that allows for comfortable temperature in all seasons.

Bridge House Max Pritchard Architect

This project involved the reconstruction of an old dry stone building and the construction of new structure on a site located in a protected natural area.

The architects’ main aim was to design a building that would enable the residents to enjoy the exceptional views the place had to offer. To the end, they created spaces that, instead of opening out onto the landscape, seem to be an integral part of it.
