Chalfont

The main concept was that the mature oak tree forest and the house should complement each other, preserving views as much as possible, while creating adaptable spaces for both parents and growing children to accommodate the evolving needs of the family.

Mass Timber was a natural fit. Direct views through the house were important, with a roof-top deck nestled in the tree canopy providing shade from the summer sun. The two sides of the house can function independently, connected by a glass link that allows those walking by see through the house to the tree canopy in surrounding the house.
