Craddock Cottages, Gomshall

with Stephen Taylor Architects

Two new houses built in the garden of the original building, an exploration of what simple new houses could deliver to ordinary homebuyers. Open to the eaves, large windows, carefully crafted brickwork.

Our partner Stephen Dodd cast the window cills himself on site using bricks broken as the build progressed, in the hope of animating the facades with small moments of richness.
