The Landscape as a Living Framework
Beneath a pitched timber roof, the living room opens towards the Peak District through broad glazing. The landscape becomes part of daily life, while the plan keeps the home grounded in ordinary routines.
Living, dining and cooking share a continuous social zone, with private rooms outside the main flow. Stone, timber and muted green upholstery provide depth without competing with the view.

The higher social volume supports gatherings, while quieter rooms sit beyond the main route through the house. Ceiling height signals each transition.
An integrated entry bench, discreet storage and controlled sightlines keep the house practical even where it opens dramatically towards the hills.
