DPR House

This new house was a great challenge. There were barely any parallel walls in the entire house, creating a setout nightmare. Through close collaboration with all team parties, we successfully negotiated this challenge to create three separate ‘pods’, each clad in a different material – shingles, copper and slate. Along with eclectic interior shapes, this stunning house was completed, resulting in an award winning residence and a very happy owner.
