Kingsley Place House
Design: Zuber Architecture
New build family home built within a conservation area of an award winning 60’s development in North London. The project retains references to the 60’s development and responds to the flexibility required of modern family living.
The house is built on an elevated sloping site with good views across London. A focal central courtyard and protected rear deck provide a threaded continuity between shelter, part shelter and surrounding context.
The majority of accommodation, bedrooms, bathrooms, living and study are provided on the ground floor. A new lower ground has been created to include a guest/games room, en-suite and a two-tiered hard-scape/soft-scape entertainment zone.
The sloping site was utilized to create additional lower ground accommodation. The garden itself was terraced to make a useful practical amenity. The appealing court yard was retained and developed into a column free glazed enclosure. Natural materials have been used throughout for their durability and aesthetic. The contemporary rear elevation has been design to flow into the garden space by creating a seamless cladding line that runs across the roof parapet, folds across and down the external seating booth and drops down to the lower ground via the staircase.
The project is located in a conservation area, therefore although the existing structure was demolished the front and side street facades were maintained. By contrast there was a lot of freedom in the treatment of the new rear elevation.
The new build is a timber framed construction utilising the existing foundations and concrete ground beams.
Natural materials play an important part of the quality and atmosphere of the home. A limited palette of materials and tonal colours has been adhered to throughout the design to achieve durable spaces that feel calved out of the whole.
Interior – Brazilian Slate has been used for the bathrooms and courtyard; concrete work benches to the kitchen; black American walnut panels to the feature walls and Panga-Panga flooring used throughout with a durable coating to resist fading from direct sunlight.
Exterior – Vertical Sapele hardwood cladding has been used on the rear elevation with a black stain to reflect the parapets of the neighbouring property. The cladding within the covered deck area has been treated with a clear varnish to give the appearance that it has been ‘scooped’ out revealing a warmer interior.
Zuber Architecture was first commissioned in November 2008 to undertake the works. Several different schemes, including a two storey option with a double height central courtyard were explored and tested before progressing to the final scheme.
Demolition works began in November 2010 with practical completion achieved in November 2011. A negotiated tender process ensued to bring the contract sum down to the cost it was delivered.
Budget: 500k
Actual Cost: 550k (excl. ext. works)
Build Period: 12 months

As in many parts of the country small developments spring up on any available land now that planning permission is easier to obtain.

near lake forest, IL. they're turning everything into condos. either using the old mansions from the days of "marshall fields" and "gimbels" for offices or simply tearing them down. the top photo is a dislpay of potential houses on the property, they're hung in the library of this really nice old mansion, the bottom are really old oak trees on the property. as dave eggers wrote about lake forest and their trees,
"see, this was a town that really took pride in it's trees. and for good reason; we had some really nice god damned trees. we had signs all over: "tree city usa" we loved those signs"
it's true. my dad was tearing down some of the buildings on this property and they had spacial notes from the lake forest tree comittee or some bullshit, that at all costs the tress must be spared. hard to do when you're tearing down a 60-80 foot tall chapel that's litterally 5-10 feet from the 200 year old oak trees.

Ray Creek on Colne Point Nature Reserve. This area which was predominantly sand and shingle is gradually changing into saltmarsh.
One of my favorite shows ever. The humor was unstoppable, maybe only equal to the Office's humor.
Stupid TV bastards canceled it after three seasons, though. Still, a great show that I rewatch from time to time.

This is part of my design process for the final rhino line drawing poster for my animal campaign. These were the development pages of my continuous line work where I explored how I could improve my initial pen drawings to be used on posters. I mainly experimented with using primary colours to create visual impact. Taking this further, I drew far more detailed designs to place in artist copies to add realism and help bring the animals and their plight to life.
