Its all in the detail, literally!
Getting a building to look simple and elegant takes a lot of work! There is so much balancing to achieve regulations and simple build-ability, while still delivering the vision for the design. There are layers and layers of complexity even to something as simple as a roof or wall. On this new build project we wanted to achieve a seamless finish with any external water pipes hidden from view. We also wanted to achieve lots of natural light internally through the roof lights but the planners did not want to see them. All of that meant we had to come up with some innovative solutions using multiple layers so that these were all concealed when looking at the building from outside. The occasional headache but a lot of fun once we got it right.
