This is an initial thought of introducing a light-well to the west elevation of the building, which also forms the boundary line to adjacent properties and consequently no windows are allowed to this rear wall. The solution of a light-well which cuts through the ground/basement floor with full height windows on each floor overlooking into it, provides a satisfactory resolution by bringing useful diffused light into the rear accommodation, maintaining privacy and providing natural cooling.
We promote the value of design in the built environment, providing innovative solutions through an eco-friendly process that reflect our client's brief. Our aspiration is to deliver schemes of identifiable character that embody client's objectives.
