Rowan House

Client/Developer: Dr Derek Attridge and Ms Suzanne Hall
Architect/Designer: Bramhall Blenkharn Leonard
Builder: York Builder Ltd

Rowan House is a new build dwelling of exceptional quality designed with sustainability and low carbon at its core. The house is constructed from an innovative timber frame structure that is fully filled with 290mm of high performance sheep wool insulation.

The street elevation is confidently modern yet also contextually sensitive, with design features referencing the conservation area in which it sits.

The modern zinc rear facade is gently cranked around the historic apple tree that was retained and forms a wonderfully sculptural centrepiece
to rear garden.
