01 / THE BRIEF

An opening corner makes the garden part of the room.

Mr and Mrs Willis wanted a peaceful family space that could open widely in summer while remaining comfortable during colder months. Removing the visual obstruction of a corner post was central to the design.

The building work was delivered by TRJ Construction Ltd for Garden Spaces. The original Garden Spaces record is linked below for the published project details.
