Jackmans House

Jackmans House is a new residential property within the gardens of an existing dwelling. Houses locally are simple typically rendered some with brick plinths and occasionally completely brick faced. The proposal acknowledges these forms and materials with a palate of warm buff/grey brick forming the ground floor plinth and a timber clad upper storey with cantilevering flat roof over the southern terrace. The roof itself is planted so that green nature of this domesticated corner of the site is retained. The house was carefully designed to be cost effective to construct and to use. The building is super insulated with good airtightness which allows for efficient mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. The glazed ‘cactus house’ on the south west elevation captures winter sun and minimises the additional background heating that is required to be provided by the air source heat pump itself powered by a concealed photovoltaic array.
