High Biggins KIRKBY LONSDALE

A self build three bedroom home which is both contextual to the historic hamlet of High Biggins and responds in a contemporary way to the woodland to the east and dramatic views to the northeast.

The design for the plot proposes a cruciform plan, with a two-storey central section on a north-south axis, with single storey wings on the east and west.

The design approach focused on creating a juxtaposition between traditional and contemporary architectural styles.

The design was seen as an opportunity to create an inviting low key, informal and sustainable environment with private and interesting landscaping zones benefiting from the outlook to the north and east.
