Project summary

Narrow House is a restoration and extension to a severely dilapidated timber cottage that has been designed to accommodate a young family. Completed by its occupants who constructed the building themselves over a period of close to ten years, the house has been designed to anticipate future needs and adapt to a changing working and living environment while prioritising access to nature, preserving open space and engaging the street.
