ARCHITECTSDesign and build by Roseland

 


Project overview
This property was slightly different from anything we had come across before. The construction consisted of solid hand mixed concrete with no reinforcement. The walls had been shuttered-up and filled with 1 foot high segments to a height of 40 feet. As the construction took place a terracotta 'L' shaped slip lined the external face of the shuttering giving the finished property the look of a brick built house. After much research we found an engineer with experience of concrete of this age and drawing on this knowledge we restored and altered the building to the clients requirements over the following months.
