Dune house - interior21. Oct2011
Completed in 2011 in Thorpeness, Suffolk islands, the Dune vacation house, is a result of a collaboration between the Mole Architects with young Norwegian practice Jarmund Visgnaes Architects.
The house is situated on the edge of an Area of Outstanding natural beauty, overlooking the sea on the Suffolk coast. A complicated roof geometry draws inspiration from the seaside strip of houses with an eclectic range of gables and dormer windows. A robust Design and access Statement and extensive negotiations ensured planning success. - Mole Architects
"Mole Architects is one of the most critically acclaimed contemporary architecture practises working in Britain today. Founded by Meredith Bowles in 1996, the practice has won a number of awards, the most significant of which is the RIBA Manser Medal, awarded to Mole in 2004 for the design of a house in Cambridgeshire (the Manser Medal is awarded for the best one-off house by an architect in the UK). Mole Architects are particularly interested in producing designs appropriate for their local context, combining traditional materials and techniques with a more contemporary attitude to design and building."- The Modern House 2009
