family house in the London Borough of Lambeth, which was built to fit into a narrow infill plot along a terrace of five architecturally distinct houses. The vision was to build a contemporary interpretation of the Arts & Crafts house combining 21st century energy and environmental performance with a commitment to traditional craftsmanship. Inspired by the English vernacular, particularly by Edwin Lutyens, the Orchard was almost entirely hand built by the owner Will Anderson, who wanted to create a home “where the building crafts shine: richly detailed and alive with the beauty of natural materials”. Built using the principles and software of the Passivhaus movement, the timber-framed structure boasts high levels of insulation and airtightness, except the ground floor porch and first floor conservatory, which were kept outside the heated building envelope to allow a traditional arts and crafts aesthetic.

Brickwork and detailing

Northcot’s Silver Grey bricks were traditionally made by hand and fired in a coal-fired kiln.  Their finely variegated orange, red and silver tones complemented the blue-white of the lime mortar and the glazed cool blue-green handmade Portuguese porcelain tiles around the windows. Matching specials added an irregular artisan appearance and texture. The brickwork was laid mostly in stretcher bond, except for areas outside the insulated building envelope, which were built from solid brick without a cavity. These extend upwards from the porch to the base of the first-floor conservatory in a Flemish Garden Wall bond, which features much darker brick headers in a simple, attractive pattern. The house won Best Brick Home at the Build It Awards 2018.

Why Northcot?

According to Will Anderson: “The chromatic subtleties of Northcot’s silver grey handmade bricks, with their delicate combination of orange-red tones dusted with fine grey sand, were integral to the uniqueness and sheer visual pleasure of this labour of love.” Learn more about this project.

Concrete Formwork system. Winner of Best ICF Home , the project stands as a benchmark for modern, low-energy construction and highlights how innovative building methods can deliver both architectural quality and long-term performance. Designed to respond to its exposed setting, Ebron ha Mòr combines strong, contemporary form with materials chosen for durability and efficiency. Built using the R-Wall ICF system, the home benefits from a solid concrete core wrapped in high-performance, closed-cell insulation, creating a structure that is exceptionally strong, naturally airtight, and highly resistant to the elements. This makes it ideally suited to challenging coastal and rural environments. The house achieves outstanding thermal performance, with zero cold bridging and excellent use of thermal mass to stabilise internal temperatures throughout the year. As a result, heating demand is significantly reduced, delivering low running costs and a consistently comfortable living environment. The robust construction ensures the building will not suffer from post-construction movement, rot, or degradation, providing long-term peace of mind and an expected lifespan of over 60 years. Architecturally, Ebron ha Mòr demonstrates the flexibility of the R-Wall system. Clean lines, generous glazing, and carefully considered proportions create a bright, modern home that maximises natural light and views, without compromising energy efficiency. Complex details, angles, and openings are achieved without increasing build cost or complexity, thanks to R-Wall’s modular approach. Ebron ha Mòr not only showcases what is possible with ICF construction but also exemplifies why R-Wall was recognised as the Build It Best ICF Home winner, setting a new standard for sustainable, high-performance residential design.

The clients were looking for sympathetic design that enhances the existing setting and neither detracts from or overpowers it. The proposals for this scheme were not to extend the listed structure but create a semi-independent structure away from it. A single storey family room extension has been carefully placed away from the key historic facades. This ensured minimal disturbance to the historic fabric and setting, allowing the listed structure to remain dominant in scale and presence. The use of glass links allows visual separation while creating a flow between the listed building and extension. Two key materials used were dark copper cladding and minimal framed glass, as both materials harmonise whilst emphasising the listed building's current style. The use of bio-diverse green roofs allows the existing habitat below the footprint of the building to be retained, this also softens the building into the site when viewed from the upper levels of the three-storey listed structure.

The southwest-facing aspect of the building boasts an impressive expanse of glass, covering an area spanning 34 square meters. Notably, the ground floor showcases a sophisticated rectangular slat system, while the second floor introduces a louver system that gracefully transitions from a rectangular configuration at its base to a striking triangular shape at the roof ridge. Each of these systems operates independently, effortlessly controlled by a motor with remote functionality. Our clents sought a shading solution for their expansive apex glazing, and with our guidance and expertise, they selected the 96-E Louvre. Renowned for its contemporary and sleek design, featuring a blade width of 96 mm, this louvre perfectly complemented the architectural vision. When fully opened, the louvres create a generous 90 mm gap between them, granting our clients an uninterrupted panorama of the picturesque rural surroundings. To ensure a cohesive aesthetic throughout the structure, meticulous attention was paid to the finishing details. All aluminium components have been expertly powder coated in RAL 9004, signal black, ensuring durability and resistance to the elements, while the black plastic sections seamlessly integrate with the overall design scheme. A beautiful and practical result for our clients with a full view through to their beautiful outdoor space.

property but with a contemporary twist for a modern lifestyle. The brief was to build a modern dwelling that would provide inside/outside living, was energy efficient, speedy to build and filled with natural light. It also needed to provide privacy and security. Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) were the perfect solution. With 300m2 of liveable space, the impressive 3 bedroom, single storey home is built from 142mm Kingspan TEK SIPs System and set in two thirds of an acre of land. The house is made up of a series of rooms set around an inner courtyard and linked by glazed walkways that flood the home with daylight. SIPs designed, fabricated and installed by SIPS@Clays, the majority of the rooms are double height, which is another of the many benefits of building with SIPs. As SIPs are structural and supported by Glulam beams, roof trusses were not required, so interesting details like this, were easily incorporated into the design.
