Fondue House / Castlepeake Architects

A small semi with a tall northern neighbor, the existing dwelling sought inspiration from beyond its boundaries to fulfill the client's desire for natural light and an increased connection to their surroundings. Borrowed views presented themselves from the upper level to the canopy of trees within the street and over the densely planted rear neighbors' garden. The alignment of the stair void proves a clear line of sight extending the length of the house and drawing light to the level below.
