❍ SITE STRATEGY ❍

Some conceptual layout sketches for an exciting project in its early stages of design. We’re exploring access, form, density, orientation and shelter while retaining site features to preserve the rural character of the site.

❍ PLANNING ❍ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pressing submit on an application to The Highland Council for a new house in Inverness. The simple form, traditional detailing and limited material choices combine to form a cohesive design that we’re hopeful the planners will appreciate. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
